Yet Not I But Christ In Me

[Starise]

They have been playing this in my church worship. I have wanted to record and play it for awhile. I really like this worship song.

I made some time to do it. This is sort of my version of it as I don't think this is exactly how they play it at church.

Yet Not I But Through Christ In Me   by City Alight

[Intro]

C    F    C    F

 

                       C                                       F

What gift of grace is Jesus my redeemer,

                       C                             Am        G

There is no more for heaven now to give

                   C                                                 F

He is my joy, my righteousness, and freedom

                          C              G                                    Csus

My steadfast love, my deep and boundless peace

[Chorus]

 

                F                                       C

To this I hold, my hope is only Jesus

C/E       F           C                          G

For my life is wholly bound to his

                C                          Dm            C                  F

Oh how strange and divine, I can sing: all is mine!

            C/G                       G              C

Yet not I, but through Christ in me

[Interlude]

 

C    F    C    F

 

                        C                               F

The night is dark, but I am not forsaken

                    C                              Am        G

For by my side, the Saviour He will stay

                C                            C/E      F

I labour on in weakness and rejoicing

                   C                G              Csus          C

For in my need, His power is displayed

[Chorus]

[Interlude]

C    F    C    F

                 C                                  F

No fate I dread, I know I am forgiven

                     C                              Am            G

The future sure, the price it has been paid

                    C               C/E                        F

For Jesus bled and suffered for my pardon

                       C                G                         C

And He was raised to overthrow the grave

[Chorus]

[Interlude]

C    F    C    F

                     C                                          F

With every breath, I long to follow Jesus

                      C                             Am           G

For He has said that He will bring me home

                      C          C/E                 F

And day by day I know He will renew me

            C                  G                         C

Until I stand with joy before the throne

[Chorus] x2

 

[Tag]

 

                   C           Dm                            C                F

When the race is complete, still my lips shall repeat:

            C/G                       G              Am   F

Yet not I, but through Christ in me!

            C/G                       G              Am   F

Yet not I, but through Christ in me!

            C/G                      G              C

Yet not I, but through Christ in me!
