Crucified With Christ
by Barbara Philbrook

"I have been crucified with Christ therefore I no longer live,
but Christ lives in me " is the testimony I give.

It is not I that does any good that I do.
It is Christ and He will do the same for you.

It is Christ who glows with love,
and pours out invitations to live with Him above.

It is Christ who is honest and truthful to a fault.
Once He came in, all conscious sinning came to a halt.

It is Christ who serves the needs of my fellow man,
doing for each whatever He can.

It is Christ who stops the anger from festering,
and who doesn't consider interruptions pestering.

It is Christ who's love overcomes other emotions,
and daily remembers to partake of devotions.

Any good that I do is because Christ resides within.
Once I accepted salvation, He did begin.

The work will continue till the very end,
making sure it is He on who I depend.

Crucified with Christ and going home for eternity.
Won't you accept too so you can come home with me?
