Steffany Gretzinger's song 'Knowing You' is a worship ballad that expresses a deep desire to know Jesus above all else. The lyrics contrast worldly values with the surpassing worth of knowing Christ, counting everything as loss for the sake of this relationship. The song emphasizes finding joy, righteousness, and identity in Jesus, and longs to experience both the power of His resurrection and fellowship in His sufferings. It reflects a heart fully surrendered to God, seeking to be found in Him and to live eternally with Him.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

All I once held dear, built my life upon

All this world reveres, and wars to own 

All I once thought gain I have counted loss 

Spent and worthless now, compared to this


Knowing You, Jesus

Knowing You

There is no greater thing

You're my all, You're the best 

You're my joy, my righteousness 

And I love You, Lord


Now my heart's desire is to know You more 

To be found in You and known as Yours

To possess by faith what I could not earn 

All-surpassing gift of righteousness


Knowing You, Jesus

Knowing You

There is no greater thing

You're my all, You're the best 

You're my joy, my righteousness 

And I love You, Lord


Oh, to know the power of Your risen life 

And to know You in Your sufferings

To become like You in Your death, O Lord 

So with You to live and never die


Knowing You, Jesus

Knowing You

There is no greater thing

You're my all, You're the best 

You're my joy, my righteousness

And I love You, Lord 

And I love You, Lord
