THAT I MAY KNOW CHRIST
Tune: "There Is a Fountain." CMD
If I have anything in which,
O'er others I might boast;
If in these things I'm counted rich;
For Christ I count them loss!
What things once seemed to be my gain,
Which gave me joy and pride;
God's grace has taught me to disdain,
And made me cast aside.
They're cast aside (What glory here!)
That I the Lord might gain.
That in the awful day to come,
I may be found in Him!
Not having my own righteousness,
Which I gain through the law;
But dressed, through faith, in nothing less
Than the righteousness of God!
O, that I may know Jesus Christ,
And know within my soul,
That power which raised Him to God's side,
And works to make me whole.
And may I learn His sufferings,
By which He made me blessed,
That like Him, in His death, I'd be,
His image on me pressed.
