The only thing
I want in life
Is to be known
For loving Christ
To build his church,
To love his bride
And make His name
Known far and wideFor this cause I live
For this cause I'd die
I surrender all
For the cause of ChristAll I once held dear
I will leave behind
For my joy is this
Oh the cause of Christ
He is all my soul will prize
Regardless of the joy or trial
When agonizing questions rise
In Jesus all my hope abidesFor this cause I live
For this cause I'd die
I surrender all
For the cause of ChristAll I once held dear
I will leave behind
For my joy is this
Oh the cause of ChristJesus, my Jesus
For your glory For your name
Jesus, my Jesus
I will only sing your praise
Jesus, my Jesus
For your glory For your name
Jesus, my Jesus
I will only sing your praiseJesus, my Jesus
For your glory For your name
Jesus, my Jesus
I will only sing your praiseFor this cause I live
For this cause I'd die
I surrender all
For the cause of ChristAll I once held dear
I will leave behind
For my joy is this
Oh the cause of ChristFor my joy is this
Oh the cause of ChristIt is not fame
That I desire
Nor stature
In my brother's eyeI pray it's said
About my life
That I lived more to build
Your name than mine
