Song of the Week: I Live, Yet not I...
/My UNION with Christ...I live, yet not I...Christ with and in and through me. This song brings me to my knees in humble gratitude for this awesome truth: I am not separate! I am not alone, trying to do my best with God's help if I believe hard enough and ask Him correctly.
He and I are ONE! You are ONE with Him too, O believing child of God! Hallelujah!
Let's sing out this truth...
CRUCIFIED with CHRIST
As I look back on what I thought was living
I'm amazed at the price I chose to pay
And to think I ignored what really mattered
Cause I thought the sacrifice would be too great
But when I finally reached the point of giving in
I found the cross was calling even then
And even though it took dying to survive
I've never felt so much alive.
CHORUS:
For I am crucified with Christ and yet I live
Not I but Christ that lives within me
His Cross will never ask for more than I can give
For its not my strength but His
There's no greater sacrifice
For I am crucified with Christ and yet I live
As I hear the Savior call for daily dying
I will bow beneath the weight of Calvary
Let my hands surrender to His piercing purpose
That holds me to the cross but sets me free
I will glory in the power of the cross
The things I thought were gain I count as loss
And with His suffering I identify
And by His resurrection power I am alive
And I will offer all I have
So that His cross is not in vain
For I found to live is Christ
And to die is truly gain
