Crucified with Christ
by Deborah Ann Belka

Crucified with Christ,
not my life now, but His
earthy desires put aside
not my life now, but His.

Crucified with Christ,
this new man to put on
no need for human wealth
old man all but gone.

Crucified with Christ,
an exercise of His grace
an end to self-reliance
His love has won the race.

Crucified with Christ,
sin no longer to control
since faith came to dwell
inside my heart and soul.

Crucified with Christ,
In Him, I am made anew
old things are no more
in Him, all is truly new.

Crucified with Christ,
not my life now, but His
alive in flesh and faith
not my life now, but His.

Galatians 2:20-21

"I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain."
