Hymn using same tune:

#556

 

 1  In daily walk and in our meetings too,

    Christ is the center, Christ is everything;

    'Tis not for form nor doctrine good and true,

    But 'tis for Christ alone we're gathering.

 

 2  Christ is the way and Christ the light of life,

    In Him we walk and by Him we are led;

    Christ is the living water and the food;

    Of Him we drink and we with Him are fed.

 

 3  Christ is the truth, 'tis Him we testify,

    Christ is the life, 'tis Him we minister;

    Christ is the Lord, 'tis Him we magnify,

    Christ is the Head, and we exalt Him here.

 

 4  Christ is the All in all to God and man —

    With Him both we and God are satisfied;

    Christ, the reality within the Church —

    By Him are life and numbers multiplied.

 

 5  By all the hymns and prayers we offer here,

    Christ the reality we would express;

    All the activities in fellowship —

    Christ thus in operation manifest.

 

 6  'Tis in His Name we meet, in Spirit act,

    With nothing in our mind to formalize;

    'Tis by His pow'r we pray, in unction praise,

    And with Himself in spirit exercise.

 

 7  All things forgetting, cleaving unto Christ,

    Applying Him until maturity;

    Let us count everything but loss for Him,

    For Him, our All in all, eternally.
