He lives in us, the Christ of God

Author: Michael Perry (born 1942) Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8 Lyrics: 1 He lives in us, the Christ of God, his Spirit joins with ours; he brings to us the Father's grace with powers beyond our powers. And if enticing sin grows strong, when human nature fails, God's Spirit in our inner self fights with us, and prevails. 3 Our pangs of guilt and fears of death are Satan's stratagems — by Jesus Christ who died for us God pardons; who condemns? And when we cannot feel our faith, nor bring ourselves to pray, the Spirit pleads with God for us in words we could not say. 3 God gave his Son to save us all — no other love like this! then shall he ever turn away from those he marks as his? And God has raised him from the grave, in this we stand assured; so none can tear us from his love in Jesus Christ our Lord.

Should we be debtors to the flesh

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:12-17 Lyrics: 1 Should we be debtors to the flesh, We who embrace the Gospel cause; Or should it be our aim or wish, To be subject to carnal laws. 2 If so, we live, we surely die, We cannot be from bondage freed-- Because we cannot crucify The flesh with ev'ry evil deed. 3 The Gospel makes the soul alive, And all our vital pow'rs renew'd; We shall succeed whene'er we strive, To have our evil lusts subdew'd. 4 We shall be made the Sons of God, And by his blessed spirit led! We walk the strait and narrow road, Assisted by his heav'nly aid. 5 No bondage, dread or slavish fear Will God's dear children need to feel. Whate'er the Gospel doth declare: His blessed spirit will reveal. 6 This spirit beareth sure record, By which assurance will be giv'n-- His witness with the Gospel word, Proves we are made the heirs of heav'n. 7 If thus we be the heirs of grace, What happy creatures we shall be! To dwell with Jesus and embrace, His love to all eternity. Topics: Eighth Sunday after Trinity

The christian suff'rings here below

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:18-23 Lyrics: 1 The christian suff'rings here below, Do not deserve to be compar'd! Unto the joys God will bestow, To those who trust unto his word. 2 On this sure promise they may build! They never need to doubt or fear-- Such glories are in them reveal'd, Which will repay their suff'rings here. 3 Happy will be the time indeed, For which the whole creation wait; When ev'ry creature shall be freed From their oppress'd and mournful state. 4 In Adam's fall the whole was made, Subject to vanity and sin-- the curse on all the earth was laid, And all that is contain'd therein. 5 All creatures may be said to groan, And travel in distress and pain; All living creatures, Sun and Moon, They feel the curse of guilt and stain. 6 But when the blessed sons of God In all their glory come to view; When heav'n and earth shall be renew'd, All creatures are redeemed too.
