Though Christ a thousand times
In Bethlehem be born
If He’s not born in thee
Thy soul is still forlorn.
The Cross on Golgotha
Will never save thy soul;
The Cross in thine own heart
Alone can make thee whole.
O
Cross of Christ
I take thee
Into this heart of mine
That I to my own self may die
And rise to thy life Divine.
What e’er thou lovest
man
That too become thou must;
God
if thou lovest God
Dust
if thou lovest dust.
Go out
God will come in;
Die thou and let Him live;
Be not and He will be;
Wait and He’ll all things give.
To bring thee to thy God
Love takes the shortest route;
The way which knowledge leads
Is but a roundabout.
Drive out from thee the world
And then thy heart shall be
Filled with the love of God
And holy like as He.
