Beside Christ on my cross – v2

Beside Christ on my cross,
Crucified with Him, restored,
Reborn through blood, His sacrifice,
Laying down my life, my desires,
Crucified with Him, redeemed,
Washed clean of my sin,
Raised from my grave.
 
Beside Christ on my cross,
My clay no longer my own,
A slave to God, to the Father,
Leaving my past, my desires,
My dreams, my pursuits,
Giving my life, my path,
Into God’s hands.

Beside Christ on my cross
https://raymondafoss.blogspot.com/2024/06/beside-christ-on-my-cross.html
Based on Galatians 2:20
“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live,
but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body,
I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and
gave himself for me.”
