|  | 1. | It is God's intent and pleasure | 
|  |  | To have Christ revealed in me, | 
|  |  | Nothing outward as religion, | 
|  |  | But His Christ within to be. | 
|  |  | It is God's intent and pleasure | 
|  |  | That His Christ be wrought in me; | 
|  |  | Nothing outwardly performing, | 
|  |  | But His Christ my all to be. | 
|  | 2. | It is God's intent and pleasure | 
|  |  | That His Christ may live in me; | 
|  |  | Nothing as an outward practice, | 
|  |  | But Christ working inwardly. | 
|  | 3. | It is God's intent and pleasure | 
|  |  | That His Christ be formed in me; | 
|  |  | Not the outward forms to follow, | 
|  |  | But Christ growing inwardly. | 
|  | 4. | It is God's intent and pleasure | 
|  |  | That His Christ make home in me; | 
|  |  | Not just outwardly to serve Him, | 
|  |  | But Christ dwelling inwardly. | 
|  | 5. | It is God's intent and pleasure | 
|  |  | That His Christ my hope may be; | 
|  |  | It is not objective glory, | 
|  |  | But 'tis Christ subjectively. | 
|  | 6. | It is God's intent and pleasure | 
|  |  | That His Christ be all in me; | 
|  |  | Nothing outwardly possessing, | 
|  |  | But His Christ eternally. |
