Jesus, these eyes have never seen
Jesus, priceless Treasure
Author: Catherine Winkworth, 1829-78; Johann Franck, 1618 - 77 Appears in 136 hymnals Topics: The Life In Christ Comfort and Rest Lyrics: 1 Jesus, priceless Treasure,
Source of purest pleasure,
Truest friend to me;
Long my heart hath panted,
Till it well-nigh fainted,
Thirsting after thee.
Thine I am, O spotless Lamb,
I will suffer nought to hide thee,
Ask for nought beside thee.
2 In thy strength I rest me;
Foes who would molest me
Cannot reach me here.
Though the earth be shaking,
Every heart be quaking,
God dispels our fear;
Sin and hell in conflict fell
With their heaviest storms assail us:
Jesus will not fail us.
3 Hence all thoughts of sadness!
For the Lord of gladness,
Jesus, enters in;
Those who love the Father,
Though the storms may gather,
Still have peace within;
Yea, whate'er we here must bear,
Still is thee lies purest pleasure,
Jesus, priceless Treasure! Used With Tune: LINDEMAN

Heroic warriors, ne'er from Christ
By any lure or guile enticed.

As strong the battle rolls!
'Gainst lies and lusts and wrongs,
Let courage rule our souls:
In keenest strife, Lord, may we stand,
Upheld and strengthened by Thy hand.

The holy war shall cease,
Faith's warfare ended, won
The home of endless peace!
Look up! the victor's crown at length!
March on, O soul, march on, with strength!
