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:

Till 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

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 power of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hands;
Till He returns or calls me home,
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand

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.

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.
