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 the Prophet, Priest and King,
Who did for me salvation bring;
And while I live I mean to sing,
Christ for me, Christ for me.
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-belovèd Son,
Co-partner of His royal throne,
Who did for human guilt atone,
Christ for me, Christ for me.
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 honors perish in a day;
My portion never can decay,
Christ for me, Christ for me.
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 shall obey,
And pass from this dark world away,
Christ for me, Christ for me.
At home, abroad, by night and day,
Christ for me, Christ for me;
Where'er I speak, or sing, or pray;
Christ for me, Christ for me.
Him first, Him last, Him all day long,
My hope, my solace and my song;
He sweetly leads my soul along,
Christ for me, Christ for me.
