Text: | The Hidden Treasure |
Author: | Rev. Johnson Oatman, Jr. |
Tune: | [Better far than any pleasure] |
Composer: | H. James Preston |
1 Better far than any pleasure,
Any joys that earth can yield,
Is to find the hidden treasure
Buried in God’s chosen field.
Refrain:
I have joys that know no measure,
Pleasures boundless, full and free,
For I’ve found the hidden treasure,
And ‘tis more than life to me!
2 Mine forever! none can steal it,—
None can ever take away,
For the Saviour mine did seal it
Safe for me against that day. [Refrain]
3 ‘Tis the seal that I’m forgiven,
On this solid rock I stand,
And I’ll safely enter heaven
With this treasure in my hand. [Refrain]
