Vs. 1:There often are distractions from devotion to my Lord. I'm tempted with the things of earth and pleasures of this world. Lord may there be but this one thing in my life I pursue, to know thee more, to love thee more and be consumed with you.
Chorus:
For me to live is Christ and nothing more. For me to live is Christ whom I adore. Lord help me be consumed with thee, so that for me to live is Christ.
Vs.2: In my life there'll be trials and testings that He will ordain but selfishly I ask Him for relief from all my pain. May I be so consumed with Him that even when I'm tried my only prayer when suffering is Christ be magnified.
Vs. 3: And when someday God calls me home through deaths dark fearful door to enter to eternity with Christ forevermore, if one this earth my only goal in goodness and in pain, for me to live was Christ alone then death would be my gain.
Lord help me be consumed with thee so that for me to live is Christ!
