Whatever gain that I had,
It was counted as a loss;
For the sake of Christ, I’m glad,
Transgressions left on the cross.
I count all things as a loss,
Because of surpassing worth;
Knowing Christ from the Logos,
As my Lord taught since my birth.
I suffered loss of all things,
That is counted now as trash;
Because what salvation brings,
Is worth more than any cash.
No righteousness of my own,
Which is found under the Law;
Through faith, approved at His throne,
Heals the scars of any flaw.
Upon His resurrection,
I know His power and might;
That led to His ascension,
With the Father on His right.
To be like Him on my death,
And in sharing suffering;
