Hymn Stanza of the Week: One Thing's Needful; Lord This Treasure

One Thing's Needful; Lord, This Treasure
Johann H. Schroder (TLH 366, stanza 5)

Wisdom's highest, noblest treasure,
Jesus, lies concealed in Thee;
Grant that this may still the measure
Of my will and actions be,
Humility there and simplicity reigning,
In paths of true wisdom my steps ever training.
Oh, if I of Christ have this knowledge divine,
The fulness of heavenly wisdom is mine.
