What is the thing of greatest price

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 87 hymnals Scripture: Mark 8:36 Lyrics: 1 What is the thing of greatest price, The whole creation round? That which was lost in Paradise, That which in Christ is found: 2 The soul of man--Jehovah's breath That keeps two worlds at strife; Hell moves beneath to work its death, Heaven stoops to give it life. 3 God, to redeem it, did not spare His well beloved Son; Jesus, to save it, deign'd to bear The sins of all in one. 4 And is this treasure borne below In earthly vessels frail! Can none its utmost value know, Till flesh and spirit fail? 5 Then let us gather round the cross, That knowledge to obtain; Not by the soul's eternal loss, But everlasting gain. Topics: The soul; The Works of God

Their faith in acquiring the habit of prayer, their depth of adoring, Lord, help us to share. 2 Some march with events to turn them God's way; some need to withdraw, the better to pray; some carry the gospel through fire and through flood: our world is their parish; their purpose is God. 3 Rejoice in those saints, unpraised and unknown, who bear someone's cross or shoulder their own; they shame our complaining, our comforts, our cares: what patience in caring, what courage, is theirs! 4 Rejoice in God's saints, today and all days; a world without saints forgets how to praise. In loving, in living, they prove it is true: the way of self-giving, Lord, leads us to you. Used With Tune: HANOVER
