The Kingdom of Heaven Within

By H. A. St. John

By H. A. St. John
The kingdom of heaven within me lies If Jesus in me has His abode; And He will bring in the grace I prize, And reign in this mortal kingdom of God.
And then I'll willingly open my hand And share with my fellows the gifts I prize; With love and delight will my heart ex- pand When the kingdom of heaven within me lies.
It is in my heart, by Christ made fair, That I first crown Jesus the Lord of all; And if I do not thus crown Him there, I never will crown Him Lord at all.
If the kingdom of heaven in me abide, In the law of the Lord will I delight; And then nevermore will my footsteps slide, For Jehovah will order them all aright. Sanitarium, California.
