I've Found the Pearl of Greatest Price!

(JERUSALEM (PURDAY). 8.6.8.6 D)
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 heav'nly might.

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.

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:
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.

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:
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.

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.

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.
