But worthy is the Lamb
Who was for sinners slain
When every knee shall bow
And tongue confess You are Lord

YET NOT I BUT THROUGH CHRIST IN ME

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

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

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

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

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

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

ROCK OF AGES

Verse 1

Rock of ages cleft for me 

Hide me now my refuge be 

Let the water and the blood

From Your wounded side which flowed

Be for sin the double cure

Cleanse me from its guilt and power

Verse 2

Not the labours of my hands

Can fulfil Your law’s demands 

Could my zeal no respite know 
Could my tears forever flow

All for sin could not atone

You must save and You alone

Verse 3

Nothing in my hand I bring 

Simply to Your cross I cling 

Naked come to You for dress

Helpless look to You for grace

Stained by sin to You I cry 

Wash me Saviour or I die

Verse 4

While I draw this fleeting breath 

When my eyelids close in death 
When I soar through realms unknown

Bow before the judgement throne

Hide me then my refuge be

Rock of Ages cleft for me
