Poverty to Princely

"He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill, that He may set him with princes, even with he princes of His people" (Psalm 113:7,8). "Better it is that is be said unto thee, Come up hither, than to be put lower in the presence of the prince whom thine eyes have seen" (Proverbs 25:7).

How gracious is the Lord
Who stoops in love to lift
The poor who can't afford
The riches of His gift.

Yes, He freely gives it since
He knows we cannot buy
The right to sit as prince
With our Lord of love on high.

From poverty to princely:
Oh what a transformation!
How sweetly He convinced me
To cry for His salvation!
