What Is the World to Me

Author: August Crull, d. 1923; Georg M. Pfefferkorn Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #430 (1941) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 What is the world to me With all its vaunted pleasure When Thou, and Thou alone, Lord Jesus, art my Treasure! Thou only, dearest Lord, My soul's Delight shalt be; Thou art my Peace, my Rest-- What is the world to me! 2 The world is like a cloud And like a vapor fleeting, A shadow that declines, Swift to its end retreating. My Jesus doth abide, Tho' all things fade and flee; My everlasting Rock-- What is the world to me! 3 The world seeks to be praised And honored by the mighty, Yet never once reflects That they are frail and flighty. But what I truly prize Above all things is He, My Jesus, He alone-- What is the world to me! 4 The world seeks after wealth And all that Mammon offers, Yet never is content Tho' gold should fill its coffers. I have a higher good, Content with it I'll be: My Jesus is my Wealth-- What is the world to me! 5 The world is sorely grieved Whenever it is slighted Or when its hollow fame And honor have been blighted. Christ, Thy reproach I bear Long as it pleaseth Thee; I'm honored by my Lord-- What is the world to me! 6 The world with wanton pride Exalts its sinful pleasures And for them foolishly Gives up the heavenly treasures. Let others love the world With all its vanity; I love the Lord, my God-- What is the world to me! 7 The world abideth not; Lo, like a flash 'twill vanish; With all its gorgeous pomp Pale death it cannot banish; Its riches pass away, And all its joys must flee; But Jesus doth abide-- What is the world to me! 8 What is the world to me! My Jesus is my Treasure, My Life, my Health, my Wealth, My Friend, my Love, my Pleasure, My Joy, my Crown, my All, My Bliss eternally. Once more, then, I declare: What is the world to me! Amen.

Thou only, dearest Friend, My Fount of joy shalt be; To Thee I look for rest -- What is the world to me? 2 The world would fain be praised By men of wealth and power, But never ponders well How soon shall pass their hour; What I shall glory in Is Jesus, only He; His praise alone I seek-- What is the world to me? 3 The world is wont to crave The things that mammon offers, Yet never feels content Tho' gold fill all its coffers; I know a higher Good, In Jesus I can see A sweet content in store-- What is the world to me? 4 The world is wont to grieve When out of honor cheated, Or when its idle fame Has sorely been depleted; But I shall bear reproach, And this my boast shall be: I suffer for my Lord-- What is the world to me? 5 The world its tainted joy Is evermore extolling, Though while on pleasure bent, From grace it may be falling. Let him who loves the world Its boon companion be; I love my Lord and God-- What is the world to me? 6 What is the world to me? Are not its treasures waning? In Jesus I alone A crown of joy am gaining; He is my wealth, my all, I shall His kingdom see In yonder realms of bliss-- What is the world to me?
