<p>Jesus, priceless Treasure, Source of purest pleasure,<br>
|
|
Truest Friend to me, long my heart hath panted,<br>
|
|
Til it well nigh fainted, thirsting after Thee.<br>
|
|
Thine I am, O spotless Lamb,<br>
|
|
I will suffer naught to hide Thee, ask for naught beside Thee.</p>
|
|
<p>In Thine arms I rest me; foes who would molest me<br>
|
|
Cannot reach me here. Though the earth be shaking,<br>
|
|
Every heart be quaking, Jesus calms our fear.<br>
|
|
Sin and hell in conflict fell,<br>
|
|
With their heaviest storms assail us, Jesus will not fail us.</p>
|
|
<p>Hence, all thought of sadness! For the Lord of gladness,<br>
|
|
Jesus, enters in. Those who love the Father,<br>
|
|
Though the storms may gather, still have peace within;<br>
|
|
Yea, whatever we here must bear,<br>
|
|
Still in Thee lies purest pleasure, Jesus, priceless Treasure!</p>
