In Christ alone will I glory

Though I could pride myself in battles won

For I’ve been blessed beyond measure

    Gsus               Am              G

And by His strength alone I’ll overcome

F                   G/B      C

Oh, I could stop and count successes

     Am       Gsus     F

Like diamonds in my hands

To the grace by which I stand

Verse 2:

In Christ alone will I glory

For only by His grace I am redeemed

For only His tender mercy

Could reach beyond my weakness to my need

Now I seek no greater honour

Than just to know Him more

And to count my gains but losses

To the glory of my Lord
