8.6.8.6.8.8.8.6.

MY heart is fixed, eternal God,

Fixed on Thee, fixed on Thee;

And my immortal choice is made,

Christ for me, Christ for me;

He is my prophet, priest, and king,

Who did for me salvation bring,

And while I’ve breath I mean to sing,

Christ for me, Christ for me.

2

In Him I see the Godhead shine,

Christ for me, Christ for me;

He is the majesty divine,

Christ for me, Christ for me;

The Father’s well-beloved Son,

Co-partner of His royal throne,

Who did for human guilt atone,

Christ for me, Christ for me.

3

Let others boast of heaps of gold,

Christ for me, Christ for me;

His riches never can be told,

Christ for me, Christ for me;

Your gold will waste and wear away,

Your honours perish in a day;

My portion never can decay,

Christ for me, Christ for me.

4

In pining sickness, or in health,

Christ for me, Christ for me;

In deepest poverty or wealth,

Christ for me, Christ for me;

And in that all -important day,

When I the summons must obey,

And pass from this dark world away,

Christ for me, Christ for me.
