Vol 02 - The Pearl of Great Price

The Pearl of Great Price Matthew 13:45-46. From high the Lord beheld, ere worlds began, As though it was the residence of man, This teeming earth, by sin and hate defiled Estranged from God, perverted, lawless, wild. But underneath the mass of sin and vice He saw a pearl of untold, matchless price, On it He set His yearning heart, and then Gave all He had and bought the peerless gem. Of it possess’d, His gracious purpose is To make it shine in everlasting bliss; To polish it is now His constant care, His image on its beauteous face to bear.
