Up in the attic
Down on my knees
Lifetimes of boxes
Timeless to me
Letters and photographs
Yellowed with years
Some bringing laughter
Some bringing tears

Time never changes
The memories, the faces
Of loved ones, who bring to me
All that I come from
And all that I live for
And all that I'm going to be
My precious family
Is more than an heirloom to me

Wisemen and shepherds
Down on their knees
Bringing their treasures
To lay at His feet
Who was this wonder
Baby yet King?
Living and dying
He gave life to me

Time never changes
The memory, the moment
His love first pierced through me
Telling all that I came from
And all that I live for
And all that I'm going to be
My precious Savior
Is more than an heirloom to me

My precious Jesus
Is more than an heirloom to me
