1. In Christ alone my hope is found,
C/E      F         G            C
He is my light, my strength, my song;
     F     C           F     G
This Cornerstone, this Solid Ground,
C/E              F        G           C
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
     C/E        F          C/E       G
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
     C/E       F             C/E       G
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
   F     C       F      G
My Comforter, my All in All,
C/E         F       G        C
Here in the love of Christ I stand.
      F       C         F       G
2. In Christ alone! Who took on flesh
C/E         F      G        C
Fullness of God in helpless babe!
     F       C        F        G
This gift of love and righteousness
C/E            F       G       C
Scorned by the ones he came to save:
     C/E     F        C/E   G
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
    C/E      F       C/E  G
The wrath of God was satisfied
    F     C      F       G
For every sin on Him was laid;
C/E         F        G        C
Here in the death of Christ I live.
         F      C          F    G
3. There in the ground His body lay
C/E          F        G        C
Light of the world by darkness slain:
     F        C        F        G
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
C/E         F        G    C
Up from the grave he rose again!
    C/E   F         C/E  G
And as He stands in victory
      C/E       F        C/E     G
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me,
    F    C       F     G
For I am His and He is mine
C/E             F        G        C
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.
      F        C        F       G
4. No guilt in life, no fear in death,
C/E         F        G         C
This is the power of Christ in me;
     F            C      F     G
From life’s first cry to final breath.
C/E     F         G    C
Jesus commands my destiny.
   C/E      F        C/E       G
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
    C/E  F        C/E      G
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
     F    C         F       G
Till He returns and calls me home,
C/E         F        G           Am
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand.
     F    C         F       G
Till He returns and calls me home,
C/E         F        G           C
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand.
