In Christ Alone
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus 2]
'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
[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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
[Chorus 4]
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
