SS&S 623: NOT I, BUT CHRIST, BE HONOURED

SS&S 623: NOT I, BUT CHRIST, BE HONOURED

1. Not I, but Christ, be honoured,

loved, exalted;

Not I, but Christ, be seen, be

known, be heard;

Not I, but Christ, in every look and action;

Not I, but Christ, in every

thought and word.

 

2. Not I, but Christ, to gently soothe in sorrow;

Not I, but Christ, to wipe the falling tear;

Not I, but Christ, to lift the weary burden;

Not I, but Christ, to hush away all fear.

 

3. Not I, but Christ, in lowly, silent labour;

Not I, but Christ, in humble, earnest toil;

Christ, only Christ! no show, no

ostentation;

Christ, none but Christ, the gatherer of the spoil.

 

4. Christ, only Christ, ere long will fill

my vision;

Glory excelling, soon, full soon, I'll see----

Christ, only Christ, my every wish fulfilling----

Christ, only Christ, my All in All to be.
