I am crucified with Jesus,
And the cross hath set me
free;
I have ris¡¦n again with Jesus,
And He lives and
reigns in me.
Refrain
Oh! It is so sweet to die with Jesus,
To
the world, and self, and sin;
Oh! It is so sweet to live with
Jesus
As He lives and reigns within.
Myst¡¦ry hid from ancient ages;
But at length to faith made
plain;
Christ in me the Hope of Glory,
Tell it o¡¦er and
o¡¦er again.
Refrain
This the secret, nature hideth,
Summer dies and lives
again,
Spring from winter¡¦s grave ariseth,
Harvest grows
from buried grain.
Refrain
This the secret of the holy,
Not our holiness, but Him;
Jesus! empty us and fill us
With Thy fullness to the brim.
Refrain
This the balm for pain and sickness,
Just to all our
strength to die,
And to find His life and fullness,
All
our beings¡¦ need supply.
Refrain
This the story of the Master,
Through the Cross, He
reached the throne,
And like Him our path to glory,
Ever
leads through death alone.
Refrain
