There is no man that hath power over the spirit to retain the spirit; neither hath he power in the day of death. (Eccl. 8:8) |
What shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? (Mark 8:36‑37) |
Had I wealth and love in fullest measure, With a name renowned both far and near, Yet no hope beyond, no harbor waiting, Where my storm-tossed vessel I could steer. |
If I gained the world, but lost the Savior, Who endured the cross and died for me, Could then all the world afford a refuge Whither in my anguish I might flee? |
