1180--My old person has been nullified;

My old person has been nullified;

1180

	1.	My old person has been nullified;
		With my Lord upon the cross he died;
		Now in nothing shall he be applied;
		He's dead to me.
		My new Person in my spirit dwells;
		Springing in me as a bubbling well;
		Flowing out until each part He fills
		With abundant life.
		Christ, my Person, in my spirit lives;
		And my heart to Him I'd daily give;
		That my inner man could have a home
		And a place to settle down, yes,
		A place to call His own, and-
		There be my complete reality,
		There expressing all He is to me,
		Living in my heart abundantly
		As my Person real.
	2.	By this Person being formed in me,
		I'll a member of His Body be,
		No more acting individually,
		But with the saints.
		More and more our Person He must be;
		That our natural personality
		Be eliminated thoroughly
		Till Christ is all.
		Only Christ, our Person, must remain;
		>From our aims, our goals we must
		refrain,
		Till the church be only Christ Himself
		Built up as the one new man,
		Thus fulfilling God's great plan of-
		Mingling fully with the human race
		To obtain a proper dwelling place,
		'Stablising His kingdom's rule and grace;
		Over all the earth.
		Not Himself just individually,
		But the church together corporately,
		Taking Christ as all in all, to be
		The full-grown, perfect man.
