Christ In Me Should Also Be In You

Still wishing; Still fishing; And have the same ole dreams; Been denying; Yet trying; But still I have the blues; I've got news, Oh I got news for you; That the Christ in me should also be in you; Still climbing those mountains; And drinking the devil's brew; Came short of the glory that's what I choose; But the water came to me from abundant fountain; I am so determined not to lose. . . I've got views of angels and heaven; And I'm saved, and my age is seven; I've got news for you; If you would only just choose; or are you... still... Still wishing; Still fishing; And have the same ole dreams; Been denying; Yet trying; But still I have the blues; I've got news, Oh I got news for you; That the Christ in me should also be in you; Just yet the Christ in me also resided in you; 07/27/02 written by James Edward Lee Sr.
