Christ all, and in all

The Eighth Part. We must make Christ our all.

WE must make Christ our all,
'Cause God o're all is he;
And God doth him so high extoll,
All to him bend their Knee.

'Tis he who suffered
All things too for our sake,
And all our Foes has conquered,
Your all him therefore make.

He all our works hath wrought
Without and too within;
Without his strength we can do nought
'Gainst Devil, World, nor Sin.

Nothing's of any worth
When to him 'tis compar'd;
To make him all God brought him forth,
A Body him prepar'd

To do all things for us,
If him therefore we have,
What is there more that is precious
That we of God can crave.
