In daily walk and
in our meetings too,
Christ is the center,
Christ is everything;
’Tis not for form
nor doctrine good and true,
But ‘tis for Christ
alone we’re gathering.
Christ is the way
and Christ the light of life,
In Him we walk
and by Him we are led;
Christ is the living water
and the food;
Of Him we drink
and we with Him are fed.
Christ is the truth,
‘tis Him we testify,
Christ is the life,
‘tis Him we minister;
Christ is the Lord,
‘tis Him we magnify,
Christ is the Head,
and we exalt Him here.
Christ is the All
in all to God and man-
With Him both we
and God are satisfied;
Christ, the reality
within the Church-
By Him are life
and numbers multiplied.
By all the hymns and prayers
we offer here,
Christ the reality we would express;
All the activities in fellowship-
Christ thus in operation manifest.
’Tis in His Name we meet,
in Spirit act,
With nothing in our mind
to formalize;
’Tis by His pow’r we pray,
in unction praise,
And with Himself in spirit exercise.
All things forgetting,
cleaving unto Christ,
Applying Him until maturity;
Let us count everything
but loss for Him,
For Him, our All in all, eternally.
