All I Have Is Christ

The Gospel message proclaimed beautifully and clearly. Christianity isn't about being good, religious, moral, or dutiful. Nor is it about groveling in self pity, despair, false humility, sorrow, and regret. It's all about Jesus! It's about what HE did on our behalf, because we never could. It's about grace! It's the  gift of true freedom and new life for eternity!

Even my very best works are as filthy rags. Nothing I do pleases God the Father apart from the finished work of Jesus. Jesus alone is my righteousness. Therefore, I can say, all I have is Christ.


All I Have is Christ
By Sovereign Grace Music, 2009
I once was lost in darkest night
Yet thought I knew the way
The sin that promised joy and life
Had led me to the grave
I had no hope that You would own
A rebel to Your will
And if You had not loved me first
I would refuse You still
But as I ran my hell-bound race
Indifferent to the cost
You looked upon my helpless state
And led me to the cross
And I beheld God’s love displayed
You suffered in my place
You bore the wrath reserved for me
Now all I know is grace
Hallelujah! All I have is Christ
Hallelujah! Jesus is my life
Now, Lord, I would be Yours alone
And live so all might see
The strength to follow Your commands
Could never come from me
Oh Father, use my ransomed life
In any way You choose
And let my song forever be
My only boast is You

Listen Now!
