to be esteemed
to be valued
to have our worth confirmed
more than gold or silver
to be valued on earth

more desirable than wealth

a good name, in the gate
in the courts of the Lord
a good name more desirable
more desirable than gold
more than wealth of this world
more than fame on the earth
a good name in heaven
what I long for in life

a good name

more desirous than wealth
than millions of dollars
to be valued in life
a good name before our Maker
more to be desired
than the riches of the world
a good name in heaven
God’s kingdom on earth
