1
Christ my very peace is
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.
2
To the Lord belonging,
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.
4
Christ within empow’rs me
Spiritual to be!
E’en my body quick’ning
By His pow’r in me.
5
Spirit with the spirit
Witnesseth in one,
I’m of God begotten,
Heir with Christ the Son.

Stanza 4 is added:

4. No more God's foe, clashing,

With God's law contend;

Righteousness surpassing,

Law-keeping transcend.
