I have no personal holiness
No righteousness of my own.
I have faith in Jesus Christ.
I trust his work alone.
I’m crucified with Christ.
Jesus lives in me.
If there’s any good
It’s Jesus Christ you see.
Jesus Christ in me
Is my only hope of glory.
God’s Spirit writes upon my heart
The blessed gospel story.
Without Jesus, I am nothing
By him, I do all things.
All praises go to him alone
For the holiness he brings.
“The tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me a sinner!’ I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
Luke 18:13-14 NKJV
“May the Lord make you increase and abound in love to one another and to all, just as we do to you, so that He may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all His saints.”
I Thessalonians 3:12-13 NKJV
“For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in the high and holy place, With him who has a contrite and humble spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones.”
Isaiah 57:15 NKJV
