             C                   F
What gift of grace is Jesus my redeemer,
            C               Am     G
There is no more for heaven now to give
         C                          F
He is my joy, my righteousness, and freedom
             C        G                  F
My steadfast love, my deep and boundless peace

C           F                     C
  To this I hold, my hope is only Jesus
       F       C               G
For my life is wholly bound to his
       C             Dm
Oh how strange and divine,
      C            F
I can sing: all is mine!
        C              G         C
Yet not I, but through Christ in me

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

To this I hold, my Shepherd will defend me
Through the deepest valley, He will lead
Oh, the night has been won,
Aand I shall overcome
Yet not I, but through Christ in me

No fate I dread, I know I am forgiven
The future's sure, the price, it has been paid
For Jesus bled and suffered for my pardon
And He was raised to overthrow the grave

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

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

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"

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"

         C          Dm              C            F
When the race is complete, still my lips shall repeat:
        C              G         Am  F
Yet not I, but through Christ in me!
        C              G         Am  F
Yet not I, but through Christ in me!
        C              G         C
Yet not I, but through Christ in me!
