Hymn 427
Lord, I care not for ricfies
- mf Lord, I care not for riches.
Neither silver nor gold;
I would make sure of heaven,
I would enter the fold;
In the book of Thy kingdom.
With its pages so fair,
Tell me, Jesus my Saviour
Is my name written there?
cr Is my name written there?
On the page white and fair?
In the book of Thy kingdom
Is my name written there?
- mf Lord, my sins they are many.
Like the sands of the sea'.
But Thy blood, O nsy Saviour!
Is sufficient for me;
For Thy promise is written,
In bright letters that glow,
"Tho' your sins be as scarlet,
I will make them like snow."
- f O! that beautiful city
With its mansions of light.
With its glorified being,
In pure garments of white
Where no evil thing cometh
To despoil what is fair;
Where the angels are watching,
Yes, my name's written there.
Christly Living
