It is God's intent and pleasure
|
|
| 1. | It is God's intent and pleasure |
| | To have Christ revealed in me, |
| | Nothing outward as religion, |
| | But His Christ within to be. |
| | It is God's intent and pleasure |
| | That His Christ be wrought in me; |
| | Nothing outwardly performing, |
| | But His Christ my all to be. |
| 2. | It is God's intent and pleasure |
| | That His Christ may live in me; |
| | Nothing as an outward practice, |
| | But Christ working inwardly. |
| 3. | It is God's intent and pleasure |
| | That His Christ be formed in me; |
| | Not the outward forms to follow, |
| | But Christ growing inwardly. |
| 4. | It is God's intent and pleasure |
| | That His Christ make home in me; |
| | Not just outwardly to serve Him, |
| | But Christ dwelling inwardly. |
| 5. | It is God's intent and pleasure |
| | That His Christ my hope may be; |
| | It is not objective glory, |
| | But 'tis Christ subjectively. |
| 6. | It is God's intent and pleasure |
| | That His Christ be all in me; |
| | Nothing outwardly possessing, |
| | But His Christ eternally. |
