“Yet Not I But Through Christ In Me” is a wonderful gospel song that are meant to lift up souls crafted by CityAlight. They released this very song in the year 2018 from the album “Yet not I.”
It’s important to know that CityAlight, is an Australian church worshipers. The group is made up of talented singers, songwriters and preachers.
I really appreciate your music, especially this song. Honestly, the corruption and evil coming out of some so-called Christian organisations is even apparent in their music and I find great relief in your song, that Christ still has a foothold here in Christian music in Australia.
In the church I just left, the worship leader claimed this song was boring, but to me, it is as new as the story of salvation in Jesus Christ and I celebrate and honour that gospel that has been called foolish. God bless you.
Verse 1
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
Refrain 1
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
Verse2
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
Refrain 2
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
Verse 3
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
Refrain 3
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
Verse 4
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
Refrain 4
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!
Tag
When the race is complete, still my lips shall repeat:
Yet not I, but through Christ in me!
Yet not I, but through Christ in me!
Yet not I, but through Christ in me!
…..THE END
