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.

I am so thankful that Christ liveth in me! I got saved October 10, 1999 and a few years later this song came to my mind and reminded me that Christ came into my heart and liveth in me forever and I am so thankful for that! Praise God!
this is one of my most favorite classical hymns. when I sing and hear this hymn deep in my heart will say ...." ((((((PRAISE GOD))))))) for God's grace is sufficient for me, for His power is perfected in weakness, therefore I will rather boast in my weaknesses that the power of Christ might tabernacle over me, thus I AM GOOD FOR NOTHING BUT PRECIOUS to SOMEONE ( CHRIST LIVETH IN ME ).

Before, I was far from God, being alienated from His presence, dead in sins and offenses. In my heart no light was found. But through the wonderful salvation I received, my view has been changed. I am now a person of God; always near to God. Now I am longing to be filled with Him that like Him I may be. Amen!! Hallelujah!!!
