It is not a message that I’ve heard

NS198
1
It is not a message that I’ve heard, (Just the Christ, in the word,)
Not some points that I’ve learned, (The Christ in all I’ve heard,)
Not a song or verse I know by heart, (But Christ in every song or verse,)
That can meet your need, or wash your feet, (Christ can meet your need,)
Touch your heart, or fill the void,
But it’s Christ, just the Christ, (Just this Christ,)
That I’ve enjoyed. (Just this Christ enjoyed.)
2
It is nothing good that is of myself, (Just the Christ, in you and me,)
Nothing of my natural life, (The Christ who’s all to be,)
Not the best of fruit from the knowledge tree, (Only Christ we’d know,)
That can touch your life, or turn your heart, (Christ can touch your life,)
Refresh you in your deepest part,
But it’s Christ, just the Christ, (Just this Christ,)
Lived out through me. (Just the Christ in me.)

Praise the Lord! all we need is Christ, just this Christ which is in us. Only by this Christ can we be satisfied with everything, and will cause us to live a proper Christian Life that will become our preparation for the Lord's coming. Hallelujah!

As for you, that which you heard from the beginning, let it abide in you. If that which you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and the Father.

May we never forget, the real Nazarite is Christ Jesus. This one is in our spirit. We must be those who live Him out. Amen!

It's nothing good that is of myself, it is Just the Christ that I've enjoyed and this Christ lived out of me...Col 1:27 Christ in you the hope of glory.

Amen, I really like this song! It's such a reminder to me that it is nothing of ourselves that can help others, but only Christ! It doesn't matter what we say, but as long as we flow out the Christ that we've been enjoying, others surely will be shepherded by us! It's just the Christ lived out through us! Praise the Lord!!!

You and this song taught me something this morning, David. Even the precious gospel message is worth nothing unless the love of Christ, and the love for Christ that comes with it is accepted! Praise God! Praise Father, Son, and Holy Spirit with song and zeal for His coming Kingdom!
