What seemed gain to me, I now count as loss
When I behold the image of the One upon the cross
To be found in Him, through the precious blood He shed
So I might attain the resurrection of the dead
That I might know Him is Heaven’s greatest call
The power of His rising, reverses Adam’s fall
Nothing I have done, could earn me heaven’s favor
My only righteousness is found in my dear Savior
How could it be possible to own this greatest treasure?
That we can have a part, of a God we cannot measure
Being found in Him, and in His sufferings share
Nothing that this world can offer, even can compare

Philippians 3:7-11(KJV) – “But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.
8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,
9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:
10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;
11 If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.”
Psalm 16
