Song Lyrics

HOW RICH A TREASURE WE POSSESS

How rich a treasure we possess

in Jesus Christ our Lord

His blood our ransom and defense,

his glory our reward

The sum of all created things

are worthless in compare

For our inheritance is Him,

whose praise angels declare

 

How free and costly was the love

displayed upon the cross

While we were dead in untold sin,

the Sovereign purchased us

The will of God the Father

demonstrated through the Son

The Spirit seals the greatest work,

the work which Christ has done

 

How vast and measureless the flood

of mercy unrestrained

The penalty was paid in full,

the spotless lamb was slain

Salvation, what a priceless gift,

received by grace through faith

We stand in robes of righteousness,

we stand in Jesus’ name

 

Yours is the Kingdom

And the power and the glory

Yours is the Kingdom

And the power and the glory

Yours is the Kingdom

And the power and the glory

Amen, Amen, Amen!

 

Christ In Me

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

 

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

 

 

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

 

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

 

The Love of God

The love of God is greater far

Than tongue or pen can ever tell

It goes beyond the highest star

And reaches to the lowest hell

The guilty pair, bowed down with care

God gave His Son to win

His erring child He reconciled

And pardoned from his sin

 

When years of time shall pass away

And earthly thrones and kingdoms fall

When men who here refuse to pray

On rocks and hills and mountains call

God’s love so sure shall still endure

All measureless and strong

Redeeming grace to Adam’s race

The saints and angels’ song

 

Could we with ink the ocean fill

And were the skies of parchment made

Were ev’ry stalk on earth a quill

And ev’ry man a scribe by trade

To write the love of God above

Would drain the oceans dry

Nor could the scroll contain the whole

Though stretched from sky to sky

 

O love of God, How rich and pure

How measureless and strong

It shall forevermore endure

The saints and angels’ song

Love God, Love People, Share Jesus
