My Worth Is Not in What I Own

March 13, 2015 Janet Schneider

This modern hymn by Keith and Kristyn Getty and Graham Kendrick speaks biblical truths that we can sing to instruct our souls.

My worth is not in what I own Not in the strength of flesh and bone But in the costly wounds of love At the cross My worth is not in skill or name In win or lose, in pride or shame But in the blood of Christ that flowed At the cross Refrain: I rejoice in my Redeemer Greatest Treasure, Wellspring of my soul I will trust in Him, no other. My soul is satisfied in Him alone. As summer flowers we fade and die Fame, youth and beauty hurry by But life eternal calls to us At the cross I will not boast in wealth or might Or human wisdom's fleeting light But I will boast in knowing Christ At the cross Refrain Two wonders here that I confess My worth and my unworthiness My value fixed - my ransom paid At the cross Refrain
