Christ my very peace is
And my life within;
Sharing in the spirit
I unite with Him.
And my life within;
Sharing in the spirit
I unite with Him.
Following the Spirit,
Living in the Lord,
Life He doth supply me
And His peace afford.
Living in the Lord,
Life He doth supply me
And His peace afford.
2
To the Lord belonging,
Bound I'll never be,
For the law of life now
Sets me wholly free.
Bound I'll never be,
For the law of life now
Sets me wholly free.
3
Minding flesh no longer,
I'll the spirit mind;
Self-will never follow,
But the Spirit's find.
I'll the spirit mind;
Self-will never follow,
But the Spirit's find.

No more God's foe, clashing,
With God's law contend;
Righteousness surpassing,
Law-keeping transcend.
With God's law contend;
Righteousness surpassing,
Law-keeping transcend.
5
Christ within empow'rs me
Spiritual to be!
E'en my body quick'ning
By His pow'r in me.
Spiritual to be!
E'en my body quick'ning
By His pow'r in me.

Spirit with the spirit
Witnesseth in one,
I'm of God begotten,
Heir with Christ the Son.
Witnesseth in one,
I'm of God begotten,
Heir with Christ the Son.
