"The Secret Place."
by Ruth Leach
I may not have the world
With all its silver and its gold,
I may not have its fame
Or beauty to behold--
But I have Jesus!
I may not have the easy path
Of comfort and of ease.
I may not have the love of men,
And do not please--
But I have Jesus!
I see the world
And all its ways
Come crumbling down.
And everything I paid
Allegiance to
Cast to the ground.
I may not have this world,
Its phoney loves and fame,
But I have the One
Who made the world,
I live by His precious Name.
I have Jesus!
For what profit is it to a man if he gains
the whole world and loses his own soul?
Matthew 16:26
