Hidden in Christ

Verse 1

This world is surely passing away

It’s getting harder every day

To live above all the noise

I’ve determined to follow You God

To set my heart upon things above

Where Jesus is praying for me

Jesus is giving me strength so I will

Chorus

Deny myself and take up my cross

Consider life nothing but loss

For the sake of the glory of Christ

I lay my life at the foot of the cross

Where love pours down redeeming the lost

My life is now hidden in Christ

My life is now hidden in Christ

Verse 2

Your power in me raising to life

Dry bones that needed to be crucified

You wrote a song in my heart

The worlds passions no longer have sway

To gain it’s riches yet still lose my way

What could I give for my soul

What do I have but you alone so I will

Bridge

Oh the depth of love that flows

From the cross to the heart of this sinner’s soul

Oh the depth of love that flows

From the cross to the heart of this sinner’s soul

Mark 8:34-37

34 And calling the crowd to him with his disciples, he said to them, 

“If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself 

and take up his cross and follow me.

35 For whoever would save his life will lose it, 

but whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel’s will save it.

36 For what does it profit a man to gain 

the whole world and forfeit his soul?

37 For what can a man give in return for his soul?
