LyicsI've found the pearl of greatest price;
My heart doth sing for joy;
And sing I must, for Christ is mine-
Christ shall my song employ.-CHO.
I've found the pearl of greatest price;
My heart doth sing for joy;
And sing I must, for Christ is mine-
Christ shall my song employ.
Christ is my Prophet, Priest, and King;-
My Prophet, full of light;
My great High Priest before the throne,
My King of heavenly might.-CHO.
For he, indeed, is Lord of lords,
And he the King of kings;
He is the Sun of righteousness,
With healing in his wings.-CHO.
Christ is my peace; he died for me;
For me he shed his blood,
And, as my wondrous Sacrifice,
Offered himself to God.-CHO.
Christ Jesus is my all in all,
My comfort and my love;
My life below, and he shall be
My joy and crown above.
