November 23, 2009  |  art  | 

I had a few people request the lyrics to this song i posted the other day. Here you go:

i give all glory to him

to the cross of Jesus Christ
I will always turn my eyes
away from the things that promise
greater things for me

to the tortured beams of wood
where my savior gave his blood
that is where my life will end
but where it may begin

chorus:
i give all glory to him
dead and buried now he lives again
it is not i who live but he who lives in me
i give all glory to him

i cannot pretend the grave
is a place i don’t deserve
for i always see my sin
before my guilty eyes

but since he chooses by his grace
to shine upon my life his face
and makes me live for him alone
and works his life in me

Contributions to nakedpastor are greatly appreciated.

  1. Hi David,

    Thankyou. Really appreciate the song. Themes of discipleship and grace pervade your very meaningful lyrics and have stirred up in me a greater desire to reflect deeply on the meaning of the cross. Hearing it reminds me of good times, many years ago, at the Langley Vineyard in BC.
