Hope in Christ [alone.]

A reminder I need all-too often.

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

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 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

Till He returns or calls me home

Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand
