“Christ In Me” by Jeremy Camp

In this obsession with
The things this world says make us happy
Can’t see the slaves we are
In all the searching, all the grasping

Like we deserve much more
Than all these blessing we’re holding
So now I’m running free
Into an ocean of mercy unending

So come and empty me
So that it’s You I breathe
I want my life to be only Christ in me
So I will fix my eyes
‘Cause You’re my source of life
I need the world to see
That it’s Christ in me

Done with what holds me down
The things I once was chasing after
Throw off these heavy chains

That I have let become my master
Oh, so now I’m running free
Into an ocean of mercy unending

So come and empty me
So that it’s You I breathe
I want my life to be only Christ in me
So I will fix my eyes
‘Cause You’re my source of life
I need the world to see
That it’s Christ in me

In this obsession with
The things this world says make us happy, yeah
Can’t see the slaves we are
In all the searching, all the grasping
