Do You See the Pearl?
SearchingPurposeTruthSurrender
A raw confession about the gap between Sunday faith and Monday living, built on the parable of the merchant who sold everything for one pearl of great price. Seven days, then a group session.
"Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it."
A song for the road you're on.

Do You See the Pearl? Dirt Road Gospel Music DirtRoadGospelMusic.com [Verse 1] Third pew back every Sunday morning Hands raised high when the chorus swells Sayin' amen with the choir singin' Then drivin' home to a quiet hell Nobody knows what I keep buried Six days deep where the light don't reach I got Sunday down to a science But it ain't ever changing me [Pre-Chorus] Mirror shows me who I am Then I walk away the same Lord, I'm tired of walkin' away the same [Chorus] Don't tell me that you love the Father Show me Don't tell me that you found the pearl If you never sold it all Don't tell me you're a fighter If you never took a swing Talk is cheap, but grace ain't Show me Let it cost you something — show me [Verse 2] Cowboys kick off, I got my feet up Sermon's gone by the second down Sunday faith and Monday secrets Two different men in the same old town I know the verses, man, I can quote 'em Chapter and line, every time But when's the last time all that light Ever touched this dark of mine [Pre-Chorus] Mirror shows me who I am Then I walk away the same Lord, I'm tired of walkin' away the same [Chorus] Don't tell me that you love the Father Show me Don't tell me that you found the pearl If you never sold it all Don't tell me you're a fighter If you never took a swing Talk is cheap, but grace ain't Show me Let it cost you something — show me [Bridge] Lord, I'm done just being a hearer Done hiding behind a song Here's my guilt, here's every secret Break it all and make me Yours [Final Chorus] Now I won't just say I love You, Father I'll show You I'm selling all I've held onto For the pearl I finally see Every secret, every Sunday Laid down here at Your feet Don't let me tell You — let me show You Let it cost me everything — I'll show You [Outro] Show me Let it cost me Show me Let it cost me everything
