Once far from God and dead in sin,
No light my heart could see;
But in God's Word the light I found,
Now Christ liveth in me.
No light my heart could see;
But in God's Word the light I found,
Now Christ liveth in me.
Christ liveth in me,
Christ liveth in me;
Oh! what a salvation this,
That Christ liveth in me.
Christ liveth in me;
Oh! what a salvation this,
That Christ liveth in me.

As rays of light from yonder sun,
The flow'rs of earth set free,
So life and light and love come forth
From Christ living in me.
The flow'rs of earth set free,
So life and light and love come forth
From Christ living in me.

As lives the flow'r within the seed,
As in the cone the tree,
So, praise the Christ of truth and grace,
His Spirit dwelleth in me.
As in the cone the tree,
So, praise the Christ of truth and grace,
His Spirit dwelleth in me.

With longing all my heart is filled,
That like Him I may be,
As on the wondrous thought I dwell
That Christ liveth in me.
That like Him I may be,
As on the wondrous thought I dwell
That Christ liveth in me.

What a lovely image! Christ within frees me. He frees me to truly live, to be filled with light and to love those around us to the uttermost. Does this verse include a single thing for me to DO? No, not one. We are the vessels made of clay, and we just enjoy this indescribable gift, Christ living in us. Oh receive it, my soul! Oh take this gift as your own, dear reader and hymn enjoyer! God has removed every requirement and every obstacle by fulfilling them in us and for us. My soul, stop your struggles to do what has already been fulfilled in you! Foolish and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken! Is this gift too great for you to believe it could be given? Is it too good to be true? Yes, too good to be true, but "no eye has seen, no ear has heard, nor has the mind of man imagined the things that God has prepared for those who love Him."

When I first heard this song, I was so touched by the chorus "Christ liveth in me."
It made me feel so safe and sound because I knew that Christ would be with me wherever I go. I'm so glad that our spirits can contain Him!
