Knowing You (all I Once Held Dear) Lyrics

Joseph Garlington Knowing You (all I Once Held Dear)

C G/B Am F C F G C
All I once held dear, built my life upon,
G/B Am F C Am G
All this world reveres and wars to own;
C F G C C/E F G Am / C
All I once thought gain I have counted loss,
G/B Am F C Am Gsus4
Spent and worthless now compared to this.

CHORUS:
G F6 C F/G G C
Knowing You, Jesus, knowing You
Am Em/G F
There is no greater thing.
C/E F/A
You're my all, You're the best,
C/G F/A
You're my joy, my righteousness,
C/E F/A C/G G
And I love You Lord.

Now my heart's desire is to know You more,
To be found in You and know as Yours,
To possess by faith what I could not earn
All surpassing gift of righteousness

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.
