"I have rejoiced in the way of Thy testimonies, as much as in all riches" (Psalm 119:14). "Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death… and he that winneth souls is wise" (Proverbs 11:4,30). "God… hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace, which was given us in… our Savior Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the Gospel" (2 Timothy 1:8-10).
Rejoice
now in the gracious way
That
God imparts His saving health!
He
drew our hearts to humbly pray
And
find in Him eternal wealth!
The
fleeting riches of this earth
Are
worthless when a person dies.
But
souls, to God, have endless worth,
So
he that wins a soul is wise.
Our
God has saved us by His grace
Through
Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
How
wonderful it is to trace
His
purpose in His saving favor!
O
Lord, You saw our poverty
And
brought to us salvation's treasure,
The
wealth of immortality,
The
way of life, and heaven's pleasure.
