The Reality of Christ In Me - 2

The gospel challenge goes freely out
come to Christ to receive the God-man
this is God's message to His lost race
for the gospel is in the Lord's eternal plan

The real true meaning in the gospel
is to know Christ and all He is
in the blessed word Christ is revealed
alive and real Jesus is all this

This is God in the person of man
showing Himself the divine being
offering the filling of His spirit
to instill every believer of Jesus' clan

It's so difficult to explain fully
the reality of Christ living within
for it means so much to one's heart
to beat rapidly knowing what it's to win

Christ provides such joy unspeakable
this bubbles up within your heart
such gifting among so many
yet deep down God's real in no small part
