If I'd know Christ's risen power,

4 Verses Christian Hymn Spiritual Song

Verse 1

If I'd know Christ's risen power, I must ever love the Cross; Life from death alone arises; There's no gain except by loss.

Chorus

If no death, no life, If no death, no life; Life from death alone arises; If no death, no life.

Verse 2

If I'd have Christ formed within me, I must breathe my final breath, Live within the Cross's shadow, Put my soul-life e'er to death.

Verse 3

If God thru th' Eternal Spirit Nail me ever with the Lord; Only then as death is working Will His life thru me be poured.
