Within the tabernacle of my body

Within the tabernacle of my body
A holy place of dwelling, living,
A royal home, a temple,
For the Spirit of God
To indwell within our bodies
Our living tabernacles, a temple,
Alive because of the grace of Christ
His climbing our cross for us…
 
By grace we have been set free
The Spirit indwelling within us
The temple of our bodies
Alive in the faith, abiding,
Within our tabernacle present
Journeying with our Savior
The Spirit guiding our steps,
The path that was written…
