Christ Jesus, All in All. (591) 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 heavenly might. 3 Christ is my peace; he died for me, For me he gave his blood; And, as my wondrous Sacrifice, Offered himself to God. 4 Christ Jesus is my All in All, -- My Comfort, and my Love; My Life below, and he shall be My Joy and Crown above. John Mason, 1683. a.
