Text for Co-Writing
I wrote this text a little while back, but have never been totally happy with any of the tunes I’ve tried. If anyone has any ideas, I’d love to hear someone else’s take on it!
I Am His
1). My heart cannot contain the whole
Of all the joy that fills my soul;
For Christ has looked upon my sin,
And still He bids me come to Him.
He sees my every fault and shame,
And yet He calls to me by name;
And so I leave all else behind;
For I am His and He is mine.
2). For He is mine, and I am His
In me He dies; in Him I live
In Him I move, in Him I breathe
In Him my joy is made complete.
In Him my sins are washed away,
In Him I’m cleansed of guilt and shame.
In Him I know the riches of
The Father’s mercy and His love.
3). How can it be that Christ should die
For such a lowly wretch as I?
Why should he bleed for my offense?
Why should I gain His righteousness?
What boundless love, what endless grace
That Christ would suffer in my place
For He has died that I might live;
He bore my sin to make me His.
4). My heart cannot contain the whole
Of all the joy that fills my soul
For Christ has conquered all my sin
And rose to walk in life again.
Now as He lives, so too shall I,
For in His triumph death has died;
And so I leave all else behind
For I am His and He is mine.
