There is nothing more profound in all of Christian teaching than the glorious fact of ---Christ in us!
Paul called it a mystery which had been hidden through the ages but is now revealed to believers; Col 1:26 & 27. In 1 Cor 6 : 19 we are called the temple (dwelling place) of the Holy Spirit. ---- How Marvellous!! I wrote this little song in celebration of this wonderful truth: I in Christ and Christ in me I in Christ and Christ in me-- How marvellous this mystery! Set free from sin's captivity Called to life and liberty-- Glory, glory, glory be. In ages past to man unknown This hope of glory we now own Long hidden mystery of grace-- He paid our debt -- in Christ we're placed. Of Him we preach, of Him we sing Our Saviour, Lord and coming King In floods of joy, our hearts ablaze We can't contain our songs of praise. That we can now call Him our friend Our minds can barely comprehend But by His Word it's true we know So on in faith rejoicing go. Our eyes are fixed on mansions grand Prepared for us by His own hand; We know we'll shortly join above The blessed Lord we know and love. I in Christ and Christ in me-- How marvellous this mystery! We'll reign with Him eternally In high and holy ecstasy --- Glory, glory, glory be! Vincent Lyons.
