Hymn/Song Information

Not to ourselves again Not to the flesh we live




Not to ourselves again,
Not to the flesh we live;
Not to the world henceforth shall we
Our strength, our being give.


The time past of our lives
Sufficeth to have wrought
The fleshly will, which only ill
Hath to us ever brought.


No longer is our life
A thing unused or vain;
To us e’en here to live is Christ,
To us to die is gain.


Our life is hid with Christ,
With Christ in God above,
Upward our heart would go to Him,
Whom, seeing not, we love.


He liveth, and we live!
His life for us prevails;
His fulness fills our mighty void,
His strength for us avails.
