Author: John Mason Hymnal: The Christian Sunday School Hymnal #26 (1883) First Line: I've found the pearl of greatest price! Lyrics: 1 I've found the pearl of greatest price!
My heart doth sing for joy;
And sing I must, for Christ is mine!
Christ shall my song employ.
Refrain:
I've found the pearl of greatest price!
My heart doth sing for joy;
And sing I must, for Christ is mine;
Christ shall my song employ.
2 Christ is my Prophet, Priest, and King;
My Prophet, full of light;
My great High Priest before the throne,
My King of heavenly might. [Refrain]
3 For he, indeed, is Lord of lords,
And he the King of kings;
He is the Sun of righteousness,
With healing in his wings. [Refrain]
4 Christ is my peace; he died for me,
For me he shed his blood;
And, as my wondrous Sacrifice,
Offered himself to God. [Refrain]
5 Christ Jesus is my all in all,
My comfort and my love;
My life below, and he shall be
My joy and crown above. Scripture: Matthew 13:46 Tune Title: [I've found the pearl of greatest price]
