Songs on a "Sunday" - The Mind of Christ

More and more I realize that the Christian life is really all about what is in this song - having the mind of Christ. And the things mentioned are truly of Christ's mindset.

The Mind of Christ

To receive when others reject,
To treat each one with true respect,
To shield when others throw stones, 
To be with one who's all alone,
To think and choose to see the very best,
To live like this is nothing less than to possess...
The mind of Christ, my highest goal.
The Lord's delight, the desire of my soul.
The Father's heart will always guide my life if I will have in me the mind of Christ.

To build up when others tear down,
To seek the lost until they're found,
To give grace where it's needed most,
Rejecting pride when others boast,
To sacrifice my all without regret,
To live like this is nothing less than to possess...
The mind of Christ, my highest goal.
The Lord's delight, the desire of my soul.
The Father's heart will always guide my life if I will have in me the mind of Christ.

The mind of Christ, my highest goal.
The Lord's delight, the desire of my soul.
The Father's heart will always guide my life if I will have in me the mind of Christ.
