about

This song is inspired by Colossians 1:27, which says "To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory," is about the mystery of Christ's presence in a person's heart and life. The song explores that there are many things in this life that are beyond human understanding and comprehension, but they have found hope and freedom in the mystery of Christ living within them. Through this relationship with Christ, Christ followers are made whole and part of a larger plan. The truth of this mystery is revealed through God's love and grace, and it gives us hope and a sense of glory that will last forever.

lyrics

In this life there are some things too difficult to know
Lying far beyond my reach questions to behold
Like how does God the Holy One live inside my heart
For God's ways are not my ways but this I know for sure

It's a mystery
And it sets me free
Christ in me
It's a mystery
And it sets me free
Christ in me
Christ in me

Like the pieces to a puzzle falling into place
Is the truth revealed to me through his love and grace
Now it is God who makes me whole through His perfect plan
For God's ways are not my ways and that is why I say

It's a mystery
And it sets me free
Christ in me
It's a mystery
And it sets me free
Christ in me
Christ in me

This is the hope
Hope of glory
I am in Christ
Christ is in me
We'll be together for eternity

It's a mystery
And it sets me free
Christ in me
It's a mystery
And it sets me free
Christ in me
Christ in me
