My Reward
ARTIST
Bill Scofield
DESCRIPTION
This song came out of a season several years ago when the Spirit was reminding me a our community of the need to count everything else loss continually. While, we wait for our Blessed Hope in the next age, the one Reward that we claim in this age is the nearness of the Spirit revealing the beauty of Jesus to us.

My Reward
LYRICS
Verse 1:
Oh, the joy I find
In laying down my life
That I might have Christ
Counting everything else as loss
Though I’ve counted the cost
I press on towards this Prize
Refrain:
I’ve been convinced of this
That this love of His
It’s worth living for, it’s worth dying for
Chorus:
You alone are my reward in this life
The only Prize that my heart Is After
To choose the better part like Mary did, and this is it…
To live a life that’s emptied out on You
Verse 2:
Tell me, will a life that’s been spent waiting
On You be wasted
Or will you count it as wise
If I, spend the rest of my days searching out
The only good I’ve tasted
that I’ve tasted in this life
