[Verse 1]
The only thing I want in life
Is to be known for loving Christ
To build His church, to love His bride
And make His name known far and wide

[Chorus]
For this cause I live
For this cause I'd die
I surrender all
For the cause of Christ
All I once held dear
I will leave behind
For my joy is this
Oh, the cause of Christ

[Verse 2]
He is all my soul will prize
Regardless of the joy or trial
When agonizing questions rise
In Jesus all my hope abides

[Chorus]
For this cause I live
For this cause I'd die
I surrender all
For the cause of Christ
All I once held dear
I will leave behind
For my joy is this
Oh, the cause of Christ
[Bridge]
Jesus, my Jesus
For Your glory, for Your name
Jesus, my Jesus
I will only sing Your praise
Jesus, my Jesus
For Your glory, for Your name
Jesus, my Jesus
I will only sing Your praise
Jesus, my Jesus
For Your glory, for Your name
Jesus, my Jesus
I will only sing Your praise

[Chorus]
For this cause I live
For this cause I'd die
I surrender all
For the cause of Christ
All I once held dear
I will leave behind
For my joy is this
Oh, the cause of Christ
For my joy is this
Oh, the cause of Christ
[Verse 3]
It is not fame that I desire
Nor stature in my brother's eye
I pray it's said about my life
That I lived more to build Your name than mine
