To Live Is Christ, To Die is Gain

For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 

Given an inheritance forever to retain

And it will be all glory when His presence is made plain

For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

Our spirits will be made perfect, relieved of this world`s pain

Given a profound rest and Ill labor not in vain

For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

Bridge

There will be no more sin in us. We`ll be done with the inner war

and the heartrending disappointments of offending the Lord

Beneath the watchful Eye of God I`ll be deeply satisfied

The overflowing love we`ll know when he takes us to His side

For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

I will be at home secure, where peace shall forever reign

But best of all I`ll be with Christ there ever to remain

For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

(Philippians 1:21)
