What Is the Thing of Greatest Price? (EN 859)

EN 859 What Is the Thing of Greatest Price?

Ps.34.22

Versi Version 1

1

What is the thing of greatest price,

The whole creation round?

That which was lost in Paradise,

That which in Christ is found:

2

The soul of man, Jehovah’s breath,

That keeps two worlds at strife:

Hell moves beneath to work its death,

Heav’n stoops to give it life.

3

God, to reclaim it, did not spare

His well-beloved Son;

Jesus, to save it, deigned to bear

The sins of all in one.

4

The Holy Spirit sealed the plan,

And pledged the blood divine,

To ransom every soul of man;

That price was paid for mine.

5

And is this treasure borne below,

In earthen vessels frail?

Can none its utmost value know,

Till flesh and spirit fail?

6

Then let us gather round the cross,

That knowledge to obtain;

Not by the soul’s eternal loss;

But everlasting gain.
