| I in Christ inherit Life and Righteousness
|
| When in Flesh abiding, Adam I express
|
| But when in the Spirit Christ is manifest
|
| 2.When I am in Adam, though I may not sin,
|
| Unto death, a sinner, sentenced I have been;
|
| When in Christ I need not righteously to act,
|
| I’m already righteous, justified in fact.
|
| 3.In the flesh I need no effort to express
|
| Marks of Adam’s nature and its sinfulness;
|
| In the spirit I need not to strive or strain,
|
| I can live as He is and in spirit reign.
|
| Thru my life with Christ, new life is given me!
|
| Minding not the flesh, old Adam cannot move,
|
| Minding just the spirit, life divine I prove.
|
| Minding just the spirit, Christ we will display;
|
| Minding just the spirit, we can overcome,
|
| Minding just the spirit, we the race may run.
|
| And His resurrection pow’r thru us will flow;
|
| Minding just the spirit, Christ will live thru me,
|
| And His life within will reach maturity.
|
| Strengthening and blessing all-inclusively;
|
| Living in the spirit, holiness I prove,
|
| And the triune God within my heart doth move. |
