I've found the pearl of greatest price;
My heart exults for joy;
And sing I must, a Christ I have—
O what a Christ have I!
Christ is my father and my friend,
My brother and my love;
My head, my hope, my counsellor,
My advocate above.
My Christ, he is the heaven of heaven;
My Christ what shall I call?
My Christ is first, my Christ is last,
My Christ is all in all.
