Oh, what a life! Oh, what a peace

Oh

what a life! Oh

what a peace!

The Christ who’s all within me lives.

With Him I have been crucified;

This glorious fact to me He gives.

Now it’s no longer I that live

But Christ the Lord within me lives.

Now it’s no longer I that live

But Christ the Lord within me lives.

Oh

what a joy! Oh

what a rest!

Christ now is being formed in me.

His very nature and life divine

In my whole being inwrought shall be.

All that I am came to an end

And all of Christ is all to me.

All that I am came to an end

And all of Christ is all to me.

Oh

what a thought! Oh

what a boast!

Christ shall in me be magnified.

In nothing shall I be ashamed

For He in all shall be applied.

In woe or blessing

death or life

Through me shall Christ be testified.

In woe or blessing

death or life

Through me shall Christ be testified.

Oh

what a prize! Oh

what a gain!

Christ is the goal toward which I press.

Nothing I treasure

nor aught desire

But Christ of all-inclusiveness.

My hope

my glory

and my crown

Is Christ

the One of peerlessness.

My hope

my glory

and my crown

Is Christ

the One of peerlessness.
