Verse 1:

           D

In Christ alone will I glory

       A               Bm              G

Though I could pride myself in battles won

For I’ve been blessed beyond measure

    A                Bm            A

And by His strength alone I’ll overcome

Oh, I could stop and count successes

Verse 2:

In Christ alone do I glory

For only by His grace I am redeemed

For only His tender mercy

Could reach beyond my weakness to my need

And now I seek no greater honor

In just to know Him more

And to count my gains but losses

To the glory of my Lord
