If I Gained The World Christian Song Lyrics in English

If I gained the world but lost the Saviour,
were my life worth living for a day?
Could my yearning heart find rest and comfort
in the things that soon must pass away?
If I gained the world but lost the Saviour,
Would my gain be worth the life-long strife?
Are all earthly pleasures worth comparing
for a moment with a Christ-filled life?

Had I wealth and love in fullest measure,
and a name revered both far and near,
yet no hope beyond, no harbour waiting
where my storm-tossed vessel I could steer –
if I gained the world but lost the Saviour,
who endured the cross and died for me,
could then all the world afford a refuge,
whither in my anguish, I might flee?

O what emptiness without the Saviour
mid the sins and sorrows here below!
And eternity, how dark without Him,
only night and tears and endless woe!
What though I might live without the Saviour
when I come to die, how would it be?
O to face the valley‟s gloom without Him!
And without Him all eternity!

O the joy of having all in Jesus!
What a balm the broken heart to heal!
Ne‟era sin so great but He‟ll forgive it,
nor a sorrow that He does not feel!
If I have but Jesus, only Jesus,
nothing else in all the world beside,
O then everything is mine in Jesus –
for my needs and more He will provide
