THE GREAT POSSESSION
What have I gained if I lose
Christ,
for into fire I shall be cast,
but for me He paid the price
so I could have a life that
lasts.
I may have worldly goods
abundant,
but God opened my eyes to see
that possessions down here are
worthless
for soon they'll be taken from
me.
There's a building of God in
Heaven
where with Him I can forever
stay
in a mansion not made with
hands,
when my earthly house passes
away.
There is only one possession
that matters --
my Savior's precious love!
It lifts me to realms of
supernal joy
when I think of Him above.
