But what things were gains to me
I counted loss on account of Christ;
To gain Christ, found in Him,
Righteous through the faith of Christ.

All I once held dear, now I lay it down,
For the sake of Christ, trade my earthly crown.
Righteousness I seek—not my own so vain,
But that which through faith in Christ I gain.

Righteousness I seek—not my own so vain,
But that which through faith in Christ I gain.

Not by works I stand, but by grace alone,
In His mercy shown, love to me made known.
Found in Christ my King, in His truth I ’bide;
In His righteousness, I’m justified.

Found in Christ my King, in His truth I ’bide;
In His righteousness, I’m justified.

All the world may claim treasures bright and bold,
But in Christ alone, I have wealth untold.
Not by past or pride, nor by things I’ve done,
But by faith in Him, the victory’s won.

Pressing on I go, leaving self behind,
With my eyes on Him, true life now I find.
All my worth and gain don’t deserve my care;
Nothing with the love of Christ compares.
With my eyes on Him, true life now I find.
All my worth and gain don’t deserve my care;
Nothing with the love of Christ compares.
