Art thou hung'ring for the fulness
|
|
| 1. | Art thou hung'ring for the fulness |
| | Of the blessing Christ doth give? |
| | Longing now to learn the secret |
| | Of the life He bids thee live? |
| | In His word thine answer standeth, |
| | "Christ who is our Life" it saith; |
| | Open now thy heart, and trust Him, |
| | There to dwell, henceforth, by faith. |
| 2. | Christ, the Lord's Anointed, reigning |
| | O'er the life He died to win, |
| | Daily shall reveal more fully |
| | His great power, without, within. |
| | What thou never could'st accomplish |
| | Shall His Spirit work through thee, |
| | While thy soul this witness beareth, |
| | 'Tis not I, but Christ in me. |
| 3. | In Him dwelleth all God's fulness, |
| | In Him thou art made complete; |
| | Rise, and claim thy heavenly birthright, |
| | Kneeling at thy Father's feet. |
| | He will never disappoint thee, |
| | Praise Him that the gift is thine; |
| | Then go forth to live each moment |
| | On sufficiency divine. |
| 4. | Lord, I come, and simply resting |
| | On Thy faithful, changeless word, |
| | I believe the blood doth cleanse me, |
| | And that Christ is crownŠd outflow |
| | Of Thy life and love through me; |
| | Reaching those who sit in darkness, |
| | Winning priceless souls to Thee. |
