O glorious Christ, Savior mine,
|
|
| 1. | O glorious Christ, Savior mine, |
| | Thou art truly radiance divine; |
| | God infinite, in eternity, |
| | Yet man in time, finite to be. |
| | Oh! Christ, expression of God, the Great, |
| | Inexhaustible, rich, and sweet! |
| | God mingled with humanity |
| | Lives in me my all to be. |
| 2. | The fulness of God dwells in Thee; |
| | Thou dost manifest God's glory; |
| | In flesh Thou hast redemption wrought; |
| | As Spirit, oneness with me sought. |
| 3. | All things of the Father are Thine; |
| | All Thou are in Spirit is mine; |
| | The Spirit makes Thee real to me, |
| | That Thou experienced might be. |
| 4. | The Spirit of life cause Thee |
| | By Thy Word to transfer to me. |
| | Thy Spirit touched, Thy Word received, |
| | Thy life in me is thus conceived. |
| 5. | In spirit while gazing on Thee, |
| | As a glass reflecting Thy glory, |
| | Like to Thyself transformed I'll be, |
| | That Thou might be expressed thru me. |
| 6. | In no other way could we be |
| | Sanctified and share Thy vict'ry; |
| | Thus only spiritual we'll be, |
| | And touch the life of glory. |
| 7. | Thy Spirit will me saturate, |
| | Every part will God permeate, |
| | Deliv'ring me from the old man, |
| | With all saints building for His plan. |
