570 – Not I, But Christ

1

Not I, but Christ, be honored, loved, exalted;

Not I, but Christ, be seen, be known, be heard;

Not I, but Christ, in every look and action,

Not I, but Christ, in every thought and word.

 

2

Not I, but Christ, to gently soothe in sorrow,

Not I, but Christ, to wipe the falling tear;

Not I, but Christ, to lift the weary burden,

Not I, but Christ, to hush away all fear.

 

3

Christ, only Christ!  No idle words e’er falling,

Christ, only Christ; no needless bustling sound;

Christ, only Christ, no self important bearing;

Christ, only Christ, no trace of “I” be found.

 

4

Not I, but Christ, my every need supplying,

Not I, but Christ, my strength and health to be;

Christ, only Christ, for body, soul, and spirit,

Christ, only Christ, here and eternally.
