104(B) YET NOT I BUT THROUGH CHRIST

Verse 1

What gift of grace

Is Jesus my redeemer

There is no more

For Heaven now to give

He is my joy

My righteousness 

and freedom

My steadfast love

My deep and 

boundless peace

Chorus 1

To this I hold

My hope is only Jesus

For my life

Is wholly bound to His

Oh how strange and divine

I can sing all is mine

Yet not I but 

through Christ in me

Verse 2

The night is dark

But I am not forsaken

For by my side

The Saviour He will stay

I labour on

In weakness and rejoicing

For in my need

His power is displayed

Chorus 2

To this I hold 

My Shepherd 

will defend me

Through the deepest valley He will lead

Oh the night has been won

And I shall overcome

Yet not I but 

through Christ in me

Verse 3

No fate I dread

I know I am forgiven

The future sure

The price it has been paid

For Jesus bled

And suffered 

for my pardon

And He was raised

To overthrow the grave

Chorus 3

To this I hold

My sin has been defeated

Jesus now

And ever is my plea

Oh the chains are released

I can sing I am free

Yet not I but 

through Christ in me

Verse 4

With every breath

I long to follow Jesus

For He has said

That He will bring me home

And day by day

I know He will renew me

Until I stand with joy

before the throne

Chorus 4

To this I hold

My hope is only Jesus

All the glory

Evermore to Him

When the race is complete

Still my lips shall repeat

Yet not I but 

through Christ in me
