Our Hymnbook

Knowing You

Graham Kendrick

Lyrics

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 my joy, 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 my joy, my righteousness,

And I love You Lord.
