Oh, what a life! Oh, what a peace!
The Christ who’s all within me lives.
With Him I have been crucified;
This glorious fact to me He gives.
Now it’s no longer I that live,
But Christ the Lord within me lives.

Oh, what a thought! Oh, what a boast!
Christ shall in me be magnified.
In nothing shall I be ashamed,
For He in all shall be applied.
In woe or blessing, death or life,
Through me shall Christ be testified.

Oh, what a prize! Oh, what a gain!
Christ is the goal toward which I press.
Nothing I treasure, nor aught desire,
But Christ of all-inclusiveness.
My hope, my glory, and my crown
Is Christ, the One of peerlessness.

But Christ of all-inclusiveness.
Psalm 73:25 - Whom do I have in heaven but You?
And besides You there is nothing I desire on earth.
All our enjoyments can only be preserved and maintained with Christ properly appreciated and exalted by us.

In woe and blessings Christ shall be magnified/testified in me. This is the highest achievement that I yearn. At stage we can have peace and rest.
