Hymn 30<br>
[[L.M.]]<br>
1. Happy the man that finds the grace,<br>
The blessing of God's chosen race,<br>
The wisdom coming from above,<br>
The faith that sweetly works by love.

2. Happy beyond description he<br>
Who knows "The Saviour died for me!"<br>
The gift unspeakable obtains,<br>
And heavenly understanding gains.

3. Wisdom divine! Who tells the price<br>
Of Wisdom's costly merchandise?<br>
Wisdom to silver we prefer,<br>
And gold is dross compared to her.

4. Her hands are filled with length of days,<br>
True riches and immortal praise;<br>
Riches of Christ, on all bestowed,<br>
And honour that descends from God.

5. To purest joys she all invites,<br>
Chaste, holy, spiritual delights;<br>
Her ways are ways of pleasantness,<br>
And all her flowery paths are peace.

6. Happy the man who wisdom gains;<br>
Thrice happy who his guest retains!<br>
He owns, and shall for ever own,<br>
Wisdom, and Christ, and Heaven are one.
