All I Have in Adam Is but Sin and Death |
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. |
