If I gained the world but lost the Savior, Were my life worth living for a day? Could my yearning heart find rest and comfort In the things that soon must pass away? If I gained the world, but lost the Savior, Would my gain be worth the toil and strife? Are all earthly treasures worth comparing With the gift of God, eternal life?
O the joy of having all in Jesus!
What a balm the broken heart to heal!
Ne'er a sin so great, but He can cleanse it,
Not a sorrow that He does not feel!
If I have but Jesus, only Jesus,
Nothing else in all the world beside-
O then everything is mine in Jesus;
For my needs and more He will provide.
