I’VE FOUND THE PEARL OF
GREATEST PRICE
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;
A Prophet full of light,
My great High Priest before the throne,
My King of heav’nly might.
For He indeed is Lord of
lords,
And He the King of kings;
He is the Sun of righteousness,
With healing in His wings.
Christ is my Peace; He
died for me,
For me He gave His blood;
And as my wondrous Sacrifice,
Offered Himself to God.
Christ
Jesus is my
All in all,
My Comfort and my Love,
My Life below, and He shall be
My Joy and Crown
above.
By John Mason, 1683.
