In Christ a-lone my hope is found,
He is my light, my strength, my song;
This Corner-stone, this solid Ground,
Firm through the fier-cest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My Comfor-ter, my All in All,
Here in the love of Christ I stand.
In Christ a-lone - who took on flesh,
Fulness of God in help - less babe!
This gift of love and righteous-ness,
Scorned by the ones He came to save:
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of God was satis-fied
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 dark-ness slain;
Then bursting forth in glorious Day,
Up from the grave He rose a-gain!
And as He stands in victo - ry,
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me.
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the pre-cious 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 com-mands my des-ti-ny.
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
Till He re-turns or calls me home,
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand!
