Not I, But Christ, Be Honored, Loved, Exalted;
Not I, But Christ, Be Seen, Be Known, Be Heard;
Not I, But Christ, In Every Look And Action;
Not I, But Christ, In Every Thought And Word.

Saved From My Sin And Myself, Dear Lord,
Saved To Be Filled With Thee;
Self Crucified, So Now Not I,
But Christ, That Lives In Me.

Not I, But Christ, To Gently Soothe In Sorrow;
Not I, But Christ, To Wipe The Falling Tear;
Not I, But Christ, To Lift The Weary Burden;
Not I, But Christ, To Hush Away All Fear.

Not I, But Christ, In Lowly, Silent Labor;
Not I, But Christ, In Humble, Earnest Toil;
Christ, Only Christ-No Show, No Ostentation;
Christ, None But Christ, The Gatherer Of The Spoil.

Christ, Only Christ-No Idle Words E’er Falling;
Christ, Only Christ-No Needless Bustling Sound;
Christ, Only Christ-No Self-Important Bearing;
Christ, Only Christ-No Trace Of “I” Be Found.

Not I, But Christ, My Every Need Supplying;
Not I, But Christ, My Strength And Health To Be;
Not I, But Christ, For Body, Soul, And Spirit;
Christ, Only Christ, Here And Eternally.

Christ, Only Christ, Ere Long Will Fill My Vision;
Glory Excelling Soon, Full Soon I’ll See-
Christ, Only Christ, My Every Wish Fulfilling-
Christ, Only Christ, My All In All To Be.
