7 Verses Inner Transformation Living In Christ Spiritual Growth

Verse 1

Make me an inward Christian, Lord, Weighty within I’d be; I’d do things from the deepest part, Live fully unto Thee.

Chorus

Paying attention to one thing— The wondrous Christ within, All persons, every matter, everything, Into the spirit bring.

Verse 2

To not by knowledge, doctrine, live, But eat the tree of life; First caring for the flow within, Never by self to strive.

Verse 3

Not outward changing of myself, But transformed inwardly, Not self improvement, self control, But Christ who reigns in me.

Verse 4

Unfazed by outward sufferings, Glory to glory bring; Through Baca’s valley traveling, Yet making it a spring.

Verse 5

Highways to Zion make my heart, From strength to strength each day Taking the church way inwardly, The inner life t’obey.

Verse 6

Living in the reality, Though outward shell we see, On the intrinsic focusing, We’ll constituted be.
