knowing you


From the bottom of my heart,
From the deepest depth of my soul
I now declare:

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 possess by faith
What I could not earn
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 myJOY,
my RIGHTEOUSNESS!
And I love you Lord...

Oh, to know the power
Of your risen life
And to know you
In your sufferings

To become like you
In your death, my Lord
So with you to live
And never die

Knowing you, Jesus
Knowing you
There is no greater thing

You're my ALL!
You're the BEST!
You're myJOY,
my RIGHTEOUSNESS!
And I love you, Lord...

And I love you, Lord
And I love you, Lord
And I love you, Lord
I'm giving you my heart
All that is within
I lay it all down
For the sake of you, my King

I'm giving you my dream
And laying down my rights
I'm giving up my pride
For the promise of new life

And I surrender,
All to you
All to you
And I surrender,
All to you
All to you

I'm singing you this song
I'm waiting at the cross
And all the world holds dear
I count it all as loss

For the sake of knowing you
For the glory of your name
To know the lasting joy
Even sharing in your pain

And I surrender
All to you
All to you
And I surrender
All to you
All to you
