I woke up with this song in my head and on my heart.

I love when that happens, and expect it is because we sang it in church last night. (We are having revival services ~ with Dwane Schildt as evangelist.)

The song was written by Daniel W. Whittle (1840-1901)…

…and put to music by James McGranahan (1840-1907)

It was inspired by Galatians 2:20:

I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. Galatians 2:20 (New King James Version)
