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

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.

In Christ alone I place my trust
And find my glory in the power of the cross

In every victory let it be said of me
My source of strength
My source of hope

In Christ alone I place my trust
And find my glory in the power of the cross

In every victory let it be said of me
My source of strength
My source of hope
In Christ alone
