In Him We Live

View/print sheet music:     SATB

For in him we live, and move, and have our being... (Acts 17:28 KJV)

      Lyrics:
      In him we live, in him who made the world
      Who caused the seas to swell and bid the skies unfurl
      The earth beneath us formed at his command
      By him made beautiful and given unto man

      In him we live, preserved from day to day
      Led in our wilderness along the surest way
      And when we fall 'tis he who bids us rise
      Dispels our darkness and enlightens our eyes

      (Chorus)
      In him we live, and he prepares a place
      Where all who will may gain the riches of his grace
      By him we come to God our Father, heirs to everlasting life
      He is our way, he is our light
      In him we live

      In him we live, what debt of love and faith
      We owe to Christ our King, our ransom from the grave
      For by his suffering, by his mortal death
      Each mortal soul shall rise and draw immortal breath!

      Then shall we live, made glorious in him
      Our sorrow turned to joy, victorious in him!
      In him perfected, sanctified in Christ
      By his unmeasured mercy never more to die

      (Repeat chorus)
