Representative Text

1 The world is the Lord’s and the heavens on high,
The stars in their splendor that shine;
His riches untold fill the earth and the sky,
Yet the wealth of a King may be mine.

Refrain:
Mine, mine, mine,
Mine, mine, mine,
I’ll rest on the word of my Father divine,
And the wealth of a King may be mine.

2 His love is unfailing, unchanging secure,
His joy is eternal, divine;
O measureless riches that ever endure,
Yet the wealth of a King may be mine. [Refrain]

3 His grace is unbounded, unfathomed and free,
He tells me “Lo! all things are thine;”
He rules all the world yet my Father is He,
And the wealth of a King may be mine. [Refrain]
