In Christ alone will I glory
Though I could pride myself in battles won
For I've been blessed beyond measure
And His grace strength alone I overcome
Oh, I could stop and count successes
Like diamonds in my hand
But those trophies could not equal
To the grace by which I stand
Chorus:
In Christ alone
I place my trust
And find my glory
In the power of the cross
In every victory
Let it be said of me
My source of strength
My source of hope
Is Christ alone
In Christ alone will I glory
For only by His grace I am redeemed
And only His tender mercy
Could reach beyond my weakness to my need
Now I seek no greater honor
Than just to know Him more
And to count my gains, but losses
To glory of my Lord
Repeat Chorus
My source of strength
My source of hope
Is Christ alone
Though I could pride myself in battles won
For I've been blessed beyond measure
And His grace strength alone I overcome
Oh, I could stop and count successes
Like diamonds in my hand
But those trophies could not equal
To the grace by which I stand
Chorus:
In Christ alone
I place my trust
And find my glory
In the power of the cross
In every victory
Let it be said of me
My source of strength
My source of hope
Is Christ alone
In Christ alone will I glory
For only by His grace I am redeemed
And only His tender mercy
Could reach beyond my weakness to my need
Now I seek no greater honor
Than just to know Him more
And to count my gains, but losses
To glory of my Lord
Repeat Chorus
My source of strength
My source of hope
Is Christ alone

I'm finding myself going back to the old school songs a lot because they're what I grew up with and I just love them so much.In this particular song, this verse speaks to me:
In Christ alone will I glory
For only by His grace I am redeemed
And only His tender mercy
Could reach beyond my weakness to my need
Now I seek no greater honor
Than just to know Him more
And to count my gains, but losses
To glory of my Lord
As I'm working on strengthening my relationship with Him, this is just perfect for what I'm feeling.

Happy Sunday sister!
Hope you had a wonderful weekend!
Have a wonderfully blessed weekend!
Dropping by from SITS wishing you a great Sunday!
Well, just looking around your blog for a very short while I want to share something with you.
My husband and I did not get pregnant easily. It took us 3 years to get Christian. Then we kept trying for another 5 years to get number two. No such luck! I felt blessed that we had gotten one and kind of felt at ease with the fact that he would be an only child.
Then at a Halloween party in 2002 we were all at our church - dressed up. A friend suddenly looked at me and asked: "Do you and your husband want more kids?" I felt a bit awkward answering: "Yes, sure we do... but we're very happy with the one we got...etc"
She stopped me mid-sentence by placing her hands on my womb (VERY embarrassing!) and started to pray for God to do a miracle! There were hundreds of people around us and I felt very self-conscious, but I thanked her and said goodbye. One month later I was pregnant with our little miracle girl GRACE. And now she is almost 6.
So it's possible! (I'm sure you get all sorts of comments like this, but wanted to share it anyway...)
Greetings from a Norwegian in Spain (on vacation)
Great song choice, Megan! Have an awesome week! :)
Just stopping by from SITS....
Great post
Hope your weekend has been beautiful.
i love this (and the other "older" songs)!!!
i hope brittany is okay, too. haven't heard anything.
hope you have a great week :)
Have always loved this song...
It made me so angry though when Michael English announced he had an affair & the Christian community turned on him & refused to play his songs... real good example of forgiveness folks... but he has made a come back which is cool!
