CCIV. Complete in Christ

1 Had I ten thousand gifts beside,
I'd cleave to Jesus crucifi'd,
And build on him alone:
For no foundation is there giv'n
On which I'd place my hopes of heav'n,
But Christ the corner stone.

2 Possessing Christ, I all possess;
Wisdom, and strength, and righteousness,
And sanctity complete:
Bold in his name I dare draw nigh,
Before the Ruler of the sky,
And all his justice meet.
