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
|
|
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
|
'Til He returns or calls me home
|
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand
|
Here I'll stand, in Christ alone
|
