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.
Christ is my Prophet, Priest, and King:
My Prophet full of light,
My great High Priest before the throne,
My King of heavenly might.
For he indeed is Lord of lords,
And he the King of kings;
He is the Sun of Righteousness,
With healing in his wings.
Christ is my peace; he died for me,
For me he gave his blood;
And as my wondrous sacrifice
Offered himself to God.
Christ Jesus is my All-in-All,
My comfort and my love;
My life below; and he shall be
My glory-crown above.
