1. A Certain Man of Whom We Read |
|

|
| 1 | A certain man of whom we read, |
| Who lived in days of old, |
| Though he was rich, he felt his need |
| Of something more than gold. |
|
| Oh, yes, oh, yes, there's something more, |
| Something more than gold: |
| To know your sins are all forgiven |
| Is something more than gold. |
|
| 2 | It happened on a certain day, |
| This little man was told |
| That Jesus soon would pass that way |
| With something more than gold. |
|
| 3 | He climbed a tree above the crowd, |
| So that he might behold |
| That blessed One with power to give |
| Him something more than gold. |
|
| 4 | The Saviour came along the way |
| And saw him in the tree; |
| Then calling to him, Jesus said, |
| "I must abide with thee." |
|
| 5 | So he obeyed, and soon he found |
| The half had not been told; |
| The blessing Jesus brought to him |
| Was better far than gold. |
