1
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.
Christ liveth in me,
Christ liveth in me;
Oh! what a salvation this,
That Christ liveth in me.
2
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.
Christ liveth in me,
Christ liveth in me;
Oh! what a salvation this,
That Christ liveth in me.
3
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.
Christ liveth in me,
Christ liveth in me;
Oh! what a salvation this,
That Christ liveth in me.
4
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.
Christ liveth in me,
Christ liveth in me;
Oh! what a salvation this,
That Christ liveth in me.

12/10/10 Today is my Dad and Mom's 52 anniversary. Dad went to be with the Lord a few years ago. He loved the Lord, and brought me up in a Christian home. This song reminds me of the sSripture," In Him we Live, Move, and Have our Being. I want to honor the Lord, and honor my parents, who loved hymn singing, and knew God's word very well. This song came to my mind early this morning, and it is a great blessing. Praise be to God.

It's truly amazing when the reality of Godliness is realized in the lives of Christians. Please don't forget such a stewardship has this preconditions in our part to maintain such relationship of Christ's "living" in me---Examine and study: 2 Cor. 13:5; 2 Tim. 2:15. Hallelujah! for the faith and truth that guarantee such a blessed state!

"The reason why a Christian is able to endure sufferings is because Christ lives in him. The reason why a Christian can sacrifice and consecrate himself is because Christ lives in him. The reason why a Christian earnestly preaches the gospel is because Christ lives in him. The power, motivation, and burden of a Christian all come from the Christ within him."

OH WHAT A SALVATION THIS!! THAT CHRIST LIVES IN ME! What a true salvation that Christ lives in us! Praise the Lord the Christ lives within us, His dear saints. Such a salvation to all the human race! This hymn comes to me often out of nowhere sometimes I will be doing something and it will come to me.
I had been praying over a certain matter today, and this afternoon this hymn came to me. Praise the Lord! What a comfort, that Christ lives in us. Amen.
