Jesus risen from the tomb with a halo - angels in prayer.   1 I believe that nothing can outweigh The advantage of knowing Jesus Christ The advantage of knowing Christ Jesus my LordChorus: All I want is to know Jesus Christ And the power of His rising All I want is to know my Lord And in Him to abide 2 For Him I take the loss of everything And I look on everything as naught If only I have Christ and a place in Him 3 I'm no longer trying on my own For perfection coming from the law I want only that which comes Through my faith in Him
