Lyrics: Verse 1:
Christ Jesus, the great I AM,
As Lord and King divine,
He came to earth His life to give
For love of all mankind.

Christ’s miracles in mercy giv’n,
As God’s Begotten Son.
They testify of divinity
From Father who sent Him.

Verse 2:
Christ suffered and endured all things.
He drank the bitter cup.
Gethsemane and Calvary,
His Father’s will was done.

The sun grows dark, the heavens weep,
The earth trembles and sighs.
His precious blood is freely spilt,
Christ breathes His last and dies.

Verse 3:
But lo, behold, the empty tomb,
Christ rose and lives again!
He says to all, “Come follow me!”
Accept His plan and live.

Christ has a place in every heart
Of those who follow Him.
Humility replaces pride,
And souls find rest within.

Chorus:
With Christ all things are possible
Through faith upon His holy name.
God’s gift of love, accept Him and
Eternal Life you shall obtain.
