What gift of grace

is Jesus my redeemer

There is no more
Am     Gsus   G
for heaven now to give

My steadfast love,

My deep and boundless peace.

I can sing: all is mine!

The night is dark

But I am not forsaken

For by my side,

The Saviour He will stay

His  power is displayed.

[Verse 3]
C
No fate I dread
F
I know I am forgiven
C
The future sure
Am       Gsus  G
The price it has been paid
C
For Jesus bled
F
And suffered for my pardon
C
And He was raised
Gsus  G       Csus  C
To overthrow the grave.

[Chorus 3]
C/E    F                       C
To this I hold, my sin has been defeated
C/E   F       C          Gsus  G
Jesus now and ever is my plea
C            Dm
Oh the chains are released,
C          F
I can sing: I am free!
C/G             G         C
Yet not I, but through Christ in me

With every breath

I long to follow Jesus
C
For He has said that
Am       Gsus G
He will bring me home

And day by day I know
F
He will renew me
C          Gsus
Until I stand with joy
G        Csus   C
Before the throne.

[Chorus 4]
C/E    F
To this I hold
C
My hope is only Jesus
C/E     F     C           Gsus  G
All the glory evermore to Him
C          Dm
When the race is complete,
C/E          F
still my lips shall repeat:
C/G             G         Csus  C
Yet not I, but through Christ in me!

Yet not I, but through Christ in me!
