Celebrate the Seasons – Titus 2

“MY WORTH is NOT in WHAT I OWN”

1) My worth is not in What I own.
Not in the strength of flesh and bone,
But in the costly Wounds of love,
At the cross.

2) My worth is not in skill or name,
In win or lose, in pride Or shame,
But in the blood of Christ that flowed,
At the cross.

CHORUS:
I rejoice in my Redeemer
Greatest treasure, Wellspring of my soul
I will trust in Him,
No other,
My soul is satisfied in Him alone.

3) As summer flowers, We fade and die
Fame, youth, and Beauty hurry by,
But life eternal calls
To us,
At the cross.

4) I will not boast in wealth or might
Or human wisdom’s Fleeting light,
But I will boast in knowing Christ,
At the cross.

CHORUS:
I rejoice in my Redeemer
Greatest treasure, Wellspring of my soul.
I will trust in Him,
No other,
My soul is satisfied in Him alone.

5) Two wonders here that I confess
My worth and my unworthiness.
My value fixed,
My ransom paid
At the cross.

CHORUS:
I rejoice in my Redeemer
Greatest treasure, Wellspring of my soul.
I will trust in Him,
No other.
My soul is satisfied in Him alone.

I rejoice in my Redeemer
Greatest treasure, Wellspring of my soul.
I will trust in Him,
No other.
My soul is satisfied in Him alone.

Story Behind:

“My Worth is Not in What I Own”

“My Worth Is Not in What I Own” is a modern Christian hymn written in 2014 by Keith Getty, Kristyn Getty, and Graham Kendrick. The song was born out of a desire to explore the paradox between human brokenness and the intrinsic value God places on every individual.

The story and meaning behind this modern day hymn are rooted in several core themes:

The Inspiration: The writers wanted to tackle the pervasive cultural trap of finding identity in net worth, achievements, and physical beauty, all of which are fleeting.

The Two Wonders: The hymn highlights two profound truths: humanity’s inherent dignity as creations made in God’s image, and our unworthiness due to our sin and personal failings.

Despite this tension, the ultimate message is that our value was permanently fixed by Christ’s sacrifice on the cross.

Theological Roots: The concept draws inspiration from the writings of theologians like William Temple (who wrote, “My worth is what I am worth to God… for Christ died for me”) and John Stott.

The chorus specifically reflects the imagery of 1 Peter, pointing to Jesus as a treasure and inheritance that outweighs any worldly gain.
