I have made my decision [My delight]

Lyrics

I have made my decision,
I have counted the cost,
What the world has to offer
I consider it loss,
Compared to the riches of knowing my Lord:
I have lost what was precious
To gain what is pure.

My delight is to know You, Lord,
What greater joy could there be in this world?
Though You may be hidden, yet one day I’ll see
The One who delights in me.

Though I’ve not yet attained it
I press on to the goal,
To lay hold of that
For which He grasped my soul.
Forgetting my failures
And all I have done,
I will strain for the finish
Till my race has been run.
