In christ alone My hope is found He is my life, my strength, my song This cornerstone , this solid rock Firm through the fierces, 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 Fulness of god in helpless babe This gift of love and righteousness, Scorned by the ones he came to save, Till on that cross as jesus died The wrath of god was satisfied; For every sin on him was laid Here in the depth 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 the pow'r of christ in me, From life's first cry, to final braeth. Jesus commands my destiny No pow'r of hell, no scheme of man Can ever pluck me from his hand Till he returns or call me home Here in the pow'r of christ I'll stand .....
