Song title: The cause of Christ
Artist: Kari Jobe
“The Cause Of Christ”
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
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
He is all my soul will prize
Regardless of the joy or trial
When agonizing questions rise
In Jesus all my hope abides
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
Jesus my Jesus
For Your glory for Your name
Jesus my Jesus
I will only sing Your praise
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
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.
Hello my people,
Hope y’ll have heard about Kari Jobe’s new album “THE GARDEN.”
This album is a collection of beautiful songs that will help you express your love and devotion to our Lord Jesus Christ. Every song is lit with love, grace and truth.
Kari Jobe is a passionate worshipper whose love for God is not only felt in the lyrics of her songs but in her voice too. Her voice is everything in the word phenomenal. I once told a friend that when I hear some people’s voice I am tempted to think that after creating them, God literarily poured honey into their vocal chords. I imagine that Kari is one of such people; her voice is just too sweet.
The first song I listened to in this album was “the cause of Christ.”
The very first line of this song “The only thing I want in life is to be known for loving Christ” got me praying. It has always been my ultimate desire in life to love Christ and show him to others. A friend sent this song to me at a time when things were beclouding my view and my heart was becoming encumbered with the worries and cares of this life. This song brought things back into perspective. Every line resonated with the longings of my near-weary heart and God used it to fan into flames the fire of my love and devotion.
In a world where people are known for the havoc they brought to mankind, I want to be known for loving Christ, building up his bride and making Him known far and wide.
When men are living and dying for different causes, I want to be one of those who will not only live but also die for the cause of Christ.
I really want to share this song with everyone I know, the beginning, center and end of it all is on Christ. I sincerely pray that it’s said about our lives that we lived more to build His name than ours.

God loves you fiercely!
Every single line in the song shatters the mightiest rock in any soul. I love every part of Kari’s THE CAUSE OF CHRIST, but my “bestest” verse is:
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.
The above verse crushed my long overdue struggle and filled my heart with eternal love and rest.
Thanks Nasa for the review.
awww… thanks a lot for sharing. God just has a way of using music to speak to our hearts just when we need it the most.
I sincerely pray it ministers to even more people
Thanks for sharing hun. . .It also got me praying after reading. . . .Can you send the song to my mail.
Kamso,i think i can relate with being filled with ‘eternal rest and peace.’ the kind that comes from seizing from my labor to find out why i’m here.And simply living each day to LOVE He who has found me,obeying Him one day at a time.
just sent it dear. there is really love in sharing..hehehe
True… “Sometimes i’m tempted to think that after God created some persons, he literally poured honey inside they heart… and i imagine that you are one of them” Hehe!
Lol @Jewel. This your imagination is powerful o. I really pray that God will do even more than you have imagined.
