Verse 1:
My treasure lies in heaven, beyond this mortal veil,
Where death can never ruin, where foes cannot assail;
Secured through all the ages by a covenant of love,
A fount of endless riches awaiting me above.
Verse 2:
My peace and consolation will carry through the night;
It rests on the foundation of a gracious sacrifice.
My once-forsaken savior has tasted every grief;
The One who knows my weakness now runs to my relief.
Chorus:
O Christ, my life, my joy, my prize,
My soul will hide in you, O Christ, my life.
Verse 3:
My shield and my defender from all that haunts my soul
Has faced my condemnation and paid my debt in full.
Though death and hell assailed him they could not overcome
So when my strength shall fail me the vict’ry will be won.
Verse 4:
My pardon, my salvation, my righteousness, my life,
My hope of resurrection, is found alone in Christ.
No power can condemn me for he was crucified;
Since I have died with Jesus with him I shall arise!
