If Christ is My Life

Original issueThe Heartbeat of The Remnant · January/February 2002 · Volume 8 · Number 1
Mountain road and buildings with the printed poem over the landscape

If Christ is my life, I would value each day
To follow His precepts, to heed and obey,
To seek His approval in all that I am,
To live out His purpose, to fulfill His plan.

The things of this life will seem mundane and small
When He is my mainstay, who gave up His all,
The hopes and ambitions which consumed my time
Will fade into nothing when His will is mine.

If Christ is my life, I'd be burdened with prayer
That all whom I influence will meet Him ‘up there’.
My life will have meaning—be wrapped up in Him
Who loved me and saved me and freed me from sin.
