For Me to Live is Christ
Author: Charles Seymour Robinson, 1829-1899 Appears in 29 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 1:21 Lyrics: 1 For me to live is Christ,
To die is endless gain;
For Him I gladly bear the cross,
And welcome grief and pain.
2 A pilgrimage my lot,
My home is in the skies;
I nightly pitch my tent below,
And daily higher rise.
3 I fare with Christ, my Lord,
His path the path I choose;
They joy who suffer most with Him,
They win who with Him lose.
4 The dawn on distant hills,
Shines o'er the vales below;
The shadows of this world are lost,
In light to which I go.
5 My journey soon will end,
My scrip and staff laid down;
O, tempt me not with earthly toys!
I go to wear a crown.
6 Faithful may I endure,
And hear my Saviour say,
Thrice welcome home, beloved child,
Inherit endless day! Topics: Book One: Hymns, Songs, Chorales; Christian Life Victorious Living, Loyalty Used With Tune: HEROLD NEW Text Sources: M. Vulpius' Ein Schön Geistlich Gesangbuch, Jena, 1609
For Me to Live is Christ
For Me to Live Is Jesus
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Unknown; Unknown Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 16 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 1:21 Lyrics: 1 For me to live is Jesus,
To die is gain for me;
Then, whensoe'er He pleases,
I meet death willingly.
2 For Christ, my Lord and Brother,
I leave this world so dim
And gladly seek that other,
Where I shall be with Him.
3 My woes are nearly over,
Tho' long and dark the road;
My sin His merits cover,
And I have peace with God.
4 Lord, when my pow'rs are failing,
My breath comes heavily,
And words are unavailing.
Oh, hear my sighs to Thee!
5 When mind and thought, 0 Savior,
Are flickering like a light
That to and fro doth waver
Ere 'tis extinguished quite,
6 In that last hour, oh, grant me
To slumber soft and still,
No doubts to vex or haunt me,
Safe anchored on Thy will;
7 And so to Thee still cleaving
Through all death's agony,
To fall asleep believing
And wake in heaven with Thee.
8 Amen! Thou, Christ, my Savior,
Wilt grant this unto me.
Thy Spirit lead me ever
That I fare happily.
Amen. Topics: The Last Things Death and Burial Used With Tune: CHRISTUS, DER IST MEIN
