VERSE 1:
C5     A5   F5    C5              F5    G5  C5 
All I once held dear, built my life upon,
           A5   F5   C5        A5      G5
All this  world reveres and wars to own;
C5     F5     G5       C5           F5    G5   A5
All I once thought gain I  have counted loss,
           A5   F5    C5      A5        G5
Spent and worthless now compared to this.


CHORUS:
G5       F5    C5     F5
Knowing You, Jesus, knowing You
      A5     E5      F5
There is no greater thing.
          C5               F5
You're my all, You're the best,
          C5                F5
You're my joy, my righteousness,
       C5        F5     C5   G5
And I love You Lord.

VERSE 2:
C5       A5      F5 C5          F5    G5   C5
Now my heart's desire is to know You more,
       A5   F5   C5       A5       G5
To be found in You and known as Yours,
C5     F5    G5   C5            F5     G5   A5
To possess by faith what I could not earn
       A5  F5    C5       A5     G5
All surpassing gift of righteousness


(CHORUS)


VERSE 3:
C5      A5   F5   C5             F5  G5  C5
Oh to know the power of Your risen life,
        A5   F5  C5        A5    G5
And to know You in Your sufferings;
C5     F5    G5    C5           F5     G5   A5
To become like You in Your death, my Lord,
        A5  F5   C5        A5    G5
So with You to live and never die.

(CHORUS)


A very simple song. This is how I play the song, not how it is "officially" 
played, but it sounds really good.
