Representative Text

1 Christ in me, the hope of glo­ry,
Is the sum of all my dreams;
Each day my faith the strong­er, bright­er grows,
And more abun­dant seems.

Refrain:
Christ in me, the hope of glo­ry,
This my soul shall ev­er be;
Christ in me! O won­drous sto­ry,
That He lived and died for me.

2 Christ in me, the hope of glo­ry,
This alone—all else is vain;
It was for me He went to Cal­va­ry—
The Lamb for sin­ners slain. [Refrain]

3 Christ in me, the hope of glo­ry,
Strength in weak­ness will sup­ply,
In my temp­ta­tions give me vic­to­ry,
In ev­ery need be nigh. [Refrain]

4 Christ in me, the hope of glo­ry,
He will lead me all the way,
Until I see Him in His beau­ty, in
The land of end­less day. [Refrain]
