English Lyrics
Verse 1
Jesus, priceless treasure, Source of purest pleasure, Truest friend to me: Ah! how long I've panted, And my heart has fainted, Thirsting Lord, for Thee. Thine I am, O spotless Lamb, I will suffer naught to hide Thee, Nought I ask beside thee.
Verse 2
In thine arms I rest me; Foes who would molest me Cannot reach me here. Though the earth be shaking, Every heart be quaking, Jesus calms my fear; Sin and hell in conflict fell With their bitter storms assail me; Jesus will not fail me.
Verse 3
Hence, all thoughts of sadness! For the Lord of gladness, Jesus, enters in. Those who love the Father, Tho' the storms may gather, Still have peace within; Yea, whate'er I here must bear, Still in Thee lies purest pleasure, Jesus, priceless treasure!
