In Christ Alone |
|
In Christ alone my hope is found |
He is my light, my strength, my song |
This Cornerstone, this solid ground |
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm |
What heights of love, what depths of peace |
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease |
My Comforter, my All in All |
Here in the love of Christ I stand |
|
In Christ alone, who took on flesh |
Fullness of God in helpless babe |
This gift of love and righteousness |
Scorned by the ones He came to save |
'Til on that cross as Jesus died |
The wrath of God was satisfied |
For every sin on Him was laid |
Here in the death of Christ I live, I live |
|
There in the ground His body lay |
Light of the world by darkness slain |
Then bursting forth in glorious Day |
Up from the grave He rose again |
And as He stands in victory |
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me |
For I am His and He is mine |
Bought with the precious blood of Christ |
|
No guilt in life, no fear in death |
This is the power of Christ in me |
From life's first cry to final breath |
Jesus commands my destiny |
No power of hell, no scheme of man |
Can ever pluck me from His hand |
Till He returns or calls me home |
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand |
