Couplet 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

Refrain

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

Couplet 2

The night is dark but I am not forsaken
For by my side
The Savior He will stay
I labor on in weakness and rejoicing
For in my need
His power is displayed

Refrain

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

Couplet 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

Refrain

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

Couplet 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

Refrain

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

Yet not I
But through Christ in me
Yet not I
But through Christ in me
