I Want to Know Christ

Lyrics

I know that I know that my life is redeemed I know I have found what some only have dreamed I hold in my heart the pearl of great price Dear God, hear my cry, I want to know Christ I want to know Christ I keep Him before me I lift up my eyes I drink in His glory I press toward the goal His goodness unfolds March on, oh, my soul I want to know I want to know Christ I know that my path is the way of the cross So I count what I gain and forget what I've lost In pain there is joy, in death there is life Dear God, hear my cry, I want to know Christ I want to know Christ I keep Him before me I lift up my eyes I drink in His glory I press toward the goal His goodness unfolds March on, oh, my soul I want to know Yes, I want to know Christ And the things that entangle me I lay them down All the treasures and trophies of life Let them be lost Only let me be found in Christ For I want to know Yes, I want to know I want to know Christ I keep Him before me I lift up my eyes I drink in His glory I press toward the goal His goodness unfolds March on, oh, my soul I want to know Yes, I want to know Oh, I want to know Christ!
