 Key:
All  I once  held dear,  built my life upon,
 All this world reveres  and wars  to own;
All  I once  thought gain  I have counted  loss,
 Spent and worthless now  compared  to this.
 Knowing You,  Jesus,  knowing You
 There is  no greater  thing.
 You're my all,  You're the best,
 You're my joy,  my righteousness,
 And I love  You Lord.
 Now my heart's desire  is to know  You more,
 To be found in You  and known  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.
