What is the thing of greatest price
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 88 hymnals Scripture: Mark 8:36 Lyrics: 1 What is the thing of greatest price,
The whole creation round?
That which was lost in Paradise,
That which in Christ is found:
2 The soul of man--Jehovah's breath
That keeps two worlds at strife;
Hell moves beneath to work its death,
Heaven stoops to give it life.
3 God, to redeem it, did not spare
His well beloved Son;
Jesus, to save it, deign'd to bear
The sins of all in one.
4 And is this treasure borne below
In earthly vessels frail!
Can none its utmost value know,
Till flesh and spirit fail?
5 Then let us gather round the cross,
That knowledge to obtain;
Not by the soul's eternal loss,
But everlasting gain. Topics: The soul; The Works of God

Rejoice in God's Saints
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 19 hymnals Scripture: Mark 8:34 First Line: Rejoice in God's saints, today and all days Lyrics: 1 Rejoice in God's saints, today and all days;
a world without saints forgets how to praise.
Their faith in acquiring the habit of prayer,
their depth of adoring, Lord, help us to share.
2 Some march with events to turn them God's way;
some need to withdraw, the better to pray;
some carry the gospel through fire and through flood:
our world is their parish; their purpose is God.
3 Rejoice in those saints, unpraised and unknown,
who bear someone's cross or shoulder their own;
they shame our complaining, our comforts, our cares:
what patience in caring, what courage, is theirs!
4 Rejoice in God's saints, today and all days;
a world without saints forgets how to praise.
In loving, in living, they prove it is true:
the way of self-giving, Lord, leads us to you.
