In Christ Alone =============== w&m: Stuart Townend & Keith Getty, 2002 Arr. Camp Kirkland [Verse 1] In Christ alone my hope is found, He is my light, my strength, my song; This cornerstone, this solid ground, Firm thro' 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. [Verse 2] 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 ev'ry sin on Him was laid. Here in the death of Christ I live. [Verse 3] 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. [Verse 4] No guilt in life, no fear in death, This is the pow'r of Christ in me; From life's first cry to final breath, Jesus commands my destiny. No pow'r of hell, no scheme of man, Can ever pluck me from His hand; Till He returns or calls me home, Here in the pow'r of Christ I'll stand! [Coda] Till He returns or calls me home, Here in the pow'r of Christ I'll stand. (In Christ) In Christ (alone,) alone, In Christ alone.
