Worth Winning

"He that winneth souls is wise" (Proverbs 11:30).

What is really worth our striving
That will gain the hard-won prize?
What's our purpose that is driving?
He that wins a soul is wise!

When we take the time to pause
And prayerfully prioritize,
What's our most important cause?
He that wins a soul is wise!

The ultimate reality
Is what's important in God's eyes.
What is God's priority?
He that wins a soul is wise!

Christ has so esteemed our worth
That He would suffer, die, and rise.
That is why He came to earth.
He that wins a soul is wise!

Let us then assess the soul
By what the Scripture testifies.
Read it in the Sacred Scroll:
"He that winneth souls is wise."
