Crucified With Christ

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 then 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.



[chorus]

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 it's 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



[chorus]



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



[chorus]
