Buried with Christ, and raised with Him
|
|
| 1. | Buried with Christ, and raised with Him |
| | too; |
| | What is there left for me to do? |
| | Simply to cease from struggling and strife, |
| | Simply to walk in newness of life. |
| | Glory be to God! |
| 2. | Risen with Christ, my glorious Head, |
| | Holiness now the pathway I tread, |
| | Beautiful thought, while walking therein: |
| | He that is dead is freed from sin. |
| | Glory be to God! |
| 3. | Living with Christ, who dieth no more, |
| | Following Christ, who goeth before; |
| | I am from bondage utterly freed, |
| | Reckoning self as dead indeed. |
| | Glory be to God! |
| 4. | Living for Christ, my members I yield, |
| | Servants for God, for evermore sealed, |
| | Not under law, I'm now under grace, |
| | Sin is dethroned, and Christ takes its place. |
| | Glory be to God! |
| 5. | Growing in Christ; no more shall be named |
| | Thing of which now I'm truly ashamed, |
| | Fruit unto holiness will I bear, |
| | Life evermore, the end I shall share. |
| | Glory be to God! |
