Crucified with Christ

Crucified with Christ (Lyrics by Phillips, Craig and Dean)


As I look back on what I thought was living,

I'm amazed at the price I choose to pay.

And to think I ignored what really mattered

Cause I thought the sacrifice would be too great.

But when I finally reached the point of giving in,

I found the cross was calling even then.

And even though it took dying to survive,

I've never felt so much alive.

For I am crucified with Christ and yet I live!

Not I, but Christ that lives within me.

His Cross will never ask for more than I can give,

For its not my strength but His.
There's no greater sacrifice.

For I am crucified with Christ and yet I live!

As I hear the Savior call for daily dying,

I will bow beneath the weight of Calvary.

Let my hands surrender to His piercing purpose

That holds me to the cross but sets me free.

I will glory in the power of the cross

The things I thought were gain I count as loss

And with His suffering I identify

And by His resurrection power I am alive!

And I will offer all I have
So that His cross is not in vain
For I found to live is Christ
And to die is truly gain.
