Verse 1
Not I but Christ be honored loved exalted
Not I but Christ be seen be known be heard
Not I but Christ in ev'ry look and action
Not I but Christ in ev'ry tho't and word
Chorus 1
Oh to be saved from myself dear Lord
Oh to be lost in Thee
Oh that it may be no more I dear Lord
But Christ that lives in me
Verse 2
Not I but Christ to gently soothe in sorrow
Not I but Christ to wipe the falling tear
Not I but Christ to lift the heavy burden
Not I but Christ to hush away all fear
Verse 3
Christ only Christ ere long will fill my vision
Glory excelling soon full soon I'll see
Christ only Christ my ev'ry wish fulfilling
Christ only Christ my all in all to be
