This hymn has a unique tune

 

 1  When Christ once died on Calvary,

       I too was there;

    'Twas in my place He stood for me,

    And now accepted e'en as He,

       His name I bear.

 

I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live,

Yet, not I, but Christ who liveth in me;

And the life I live in the flesh,

I live by the faith of the Son of God,

Who loved, and gave Himself for me.

 

 2  When Christ once rose with life divine,

       I too was there;

    His resurrection pow'r is mine,

    And as the branches and the vine

       His life I share.

 

I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live,

Yet, not I, but Christ who liveth in me;

And the life I live in the flesh,

I live by the faith of the Son of God,

Who loved, and gave Himself for me.

 

 3  When Christ will come some day for me,

       I shall be there;

    With Him and like Him I shall be,

    And all His glorious majesty

       I too shall share.

 

I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live,

Yet, not I, but Christ who liveth in me;

And the life I live in the flesh,

I live by the faith of the Son of God,

Who loved, and gave Himself for me.

 

 4  O blessed life so deep, so high,

       Lord, keep me there;

    Help me with Christ to live, to die,

    And let me with Him, bye and bye

       His glory share.

 

I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live,

Yet, not I, but Christ who liveth in me;

And the life I live in the flesh,

I live by the faith of the Son of God,

Who loved, and gave Himself for me.
