Jesus, Priceless Treasure
Author: Johann Franck; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 6.6.5.6.6.5.7.8.6 Appears in 136 hymnals Topics: Trust and Confidence Lyrics: 1 Jesus, priceless treasure,
source of purest pleasure,
friend to me so true,
how my heart has panted
and my soul has fainted,
thirsting after you.
Yours I am, O spotless Lamb,
I will suffer nought to hide you,
nought I ask beside you.
2 In your arms I rest me,
foes who would molest me
cannot reach me here.
Though the earth be shaking,
ev'ry heart be quaking,
Jesus calms my fear.
Sin and hell in conflict fell
with their bitter storms assail me.
Jesus will not fail me.
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;
and, whatever I must bear,
still in you lies purest pleasure,
Jesus, priceless treasure! Scripture: Psalm 73:23-25 Used With Tune: JESU, MEINE FREUDE
Jesus, Priceless Treasure
Rock of Ages, Cleft for Me
Author: A. M. Toplady Appears in 2,973 hymnals Topics: Trust and Confidence Lyrics: 1 Rock of ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee;
Let the water and the blood,
From Thy riven side which flowed,
Be of sin the perfect cure,
Cleanse me, Lord, and make me pure.
2 Not the labors of my hands
Can fulfill Thy law's demands;
Could my zeal no respite know,
Could my tears forever flow,
All for sin could not atone;
Thou must save, and Thou alone.
3 Nothing in my hand I bring;
Simply to Thy cross I cling;
Naked, come to Thee for dress;
Helpless, look to Thee for grace;
Foul, I to the Fountain fly:
Wash me, Savior, or I die!
4 While I draw this fleeting breath,
When mine eyelids close in death,
When I soar to worlds unknown,
See Thee on Thy judgment throne;
Rock of ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee! Used With Tune: TOPLADY

My faith looks up to Thee
Author: Rev. Ray Palmer Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 2,259 hymnals Topics: Trust and Confidence Lyrics: 1 My faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Saviour divine:
Now hear me while I pray,
Take all my guilt away,
O let me from this day
Be wholly Thine!
2 May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire;
As Thou hast died for me,
O may my love to Thee
Pure, warm, and changeless be,
A living fire!
3 While life's dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread,
Be Thou my Guide;
Bid darkness turn to day,
Wipe sorrow's tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From Thee aside.
4 When ends life's transient dream,
When death's cold, sullen stream
Shall o'er me roll,
Blest Saviour, then, in love,
Fear and distrust remove;
O bear me safe above,
A ransomed soul!
Amen. Used With Tune: OLIVET
