More Than Rubies

Early in the morning do you rise

Sympathy and kindness in your eyes

You put on your strength and dignity

One more splendid I have yet to see

Can I count the favor that you bring?

Or capture all your goodness when I sing?

You are worth far more than anything

More than rubies

The snow will come, but you are not afraid

We rest in the comfort you have made

A garden grows where you have set your mind

And we receive the blessings from the vine

Can I count the favor that you bring?

Or capture all your goodness when I sing?

You are worth far more than anything

More than rubies

Glad and ready are your heart and hands

You gracefully do all that life demands

With joyful laughter at the days to come

Kindness and love are on your tongue

Can I count the favor that you bring?

Or capture all your goodness when I sing?

You are worth far more than anything

More than rubies
