Verse 1
Father I can come to You
And boast of deeds I've done
In my pride I strive to earn
The favor Christ has won
He alone pleads my acceptance
All my works aside
So I come with empty hands
And I cling to Christ
Verse 2
Father I can go astray
And battle needless fears
Voices tell me I'm condemned
And that I can't draw near
But Your Spirit calls me homeward
With Your words of life
Jesus bore my ev'ry sin
So I cling to Christ
(Bridge)
It's more than I can do
To keep my hold on You
But all my hope and peace
Is that You cling to me
Verse 3
Father all my earthly aims
In time will turn to dust
Let me learn that loss is gain
For those who know Your love
All the treasures of this world
Will never satisfy
You alone are endless joy
So I cling to Christ
