The only thing I want in life

For this cause, I live

I surrender all
F#m E
For the cause of Christ

All I once held dear
F#m E
I will leave behind

For my joy is this
F#m E A E Bm7 F#m7
Oh, the cause of Christ!

In Jesus all my hope abides

Christ! For my joy is this

It is not fame that I desire

Nor stature in my brother's eye

I pray it's said about my life

That I lived more to build
A/C# D2
Your name than mine
