A living sacrifice for Christ Archives - Page 16 of 18

No Longer I, but Christ

No longer to struggle
In life’s battles, then lose
A new creature in Christ
For His glory, to use.

Thirst for Jesus’, living waters
And walk in God’s Spirit
Set your mind on His Word
“LORD, this vessel, daily fill it”.

A faith based on facts
So fully supported
In the LORD God, eternal
Who created and ordered.

As a branch in God’s vine
We are called to abide
Not wander away
Lest we’re cast aside.

So, am focused no longer
On my feelings and flaws
But His grace, for each need
Trust Him, to open doors.

Am longing, Your Spirit
May take full control
Wholly dwelling and filling
Am yielding, my whole.

So sinful, so selfish
I surrender my all
Holy Spirit, come fill
May You Lord, have all.

Know, he is no fool
Who freely gives up
What he cannot save
To see God, fill his cup.

Godliness, with contentment
Is truly great gain
We brought naught in this world
And we exit, the same.

Set free from my bondage
To self, and my sin
To Satan and demons
Now freedom, within.
