| | All I once held dear, built my life upon, All this world reveres and wars to own, All I once thought gain I have counted loss, Spent and worthless now, compared to this:
Knowing You, Jesus, knowing You There is no greater thing You're my All, You're the Best You're my Joy, my Righteousness, And I love You, LORD
Now my heart's desire is to know You more, To be found in You, and known as Yours, To posess by Faith what I could not earn: The all surpassing gift of Righteousness.
Knowing You, Jesus, knowing You There is no greater thing You're my All, You're the Best You're my Joy, my Righteousness, And I love You, LORD
And Jesus, I love You Jesus, I adore You Jesus, You STILL have my affection And my song will be I love You.
This world is not my home, I'm just a passing through, My treasures and my hopes are out beyond the blue, The angels beckon me through heaven's open door And I'm just not at home in this world any more.
For You have captured me, Completely captured me, And I'm consumed with You, and only you, Jesus.
Give me one pure and holy passion Give me one magnificent obsession Jesus, give me one glorious ambition for my life, To know and follow hard after You.
To know and follow hard after You, To grow as Your disciple in the Truth. This world is empty, pale, and poor Compared to knowing You, my LORD. Lead me on, and I will run after You. Lead me on, and I will run after You.
I am ruined...H |
