1311. Union with Christ

Author: Greg De Blieck

UNION WITH CHRIST! WHAT A GLORIOUS THOUGHT,
what a wonderful truth we embrace;
for his victory attained makes the children of God
to endure, and to finish the race.

2. The hope that we have is no temporal thing
to be swayed by our failures or fears;
in Christ we have faith as our conquering King,
and the Christian, through faith, perseveres.

Hallelujah, we are his!
Hallelujah, we are his!
No greater love is there than this:
Jesus is ours and we are his.

3. Union with Christ! What a glorious thought
to be one with ‘the Lion and the Lamb’;
to be given a heart that responds as it ought
to the great everlasting ‘I AM!’

Hallelujah, we are his!…

Hallelujah, we are his!
Deepest communion, sweetest bliss!
No greater love is there than this:
Jesus is ours and we are his.
