PHILIPPIANS 1 - “For to Me to Live Is Christ” | Psalm Selah
Full sung version coming soon.
Lyrics
I thank my God whenever I remember you Always in every request of mine on behalf of you all Making my requests with joy
For your partnership in furtherance of the Good News From the first day until now being confident of this very thing That he who began a good work in you Will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ
It is even right for me to think this way On behalf of all of you because I have you in my heart Because both in my bonds and in the defence And confirmation of the Good News You all are partakers with me of grace
For God is my witness how I long after all of you In the tender mercies of Christ Jesus
For to me to live is Christ and to die is gain But if I live on in the flesh this will bring fruit From my work yet I don’t know what I will choose But I am hard pressed between the two
Having the desire to depart and be with Christ Which is far better yet to remain in the flesh Is more needful for your sake
Only let your way of life be worthy of the Good News of Christ That whether I come and see you or am absent I may hear of your state that you stand firm in one spirit With one soul striving for the faith of the Good News
