In [G]Christ [D]alone my [G]hope is [A]found,
[D]He is my [G]light, my [A]strength, my [D]song;
This [G] [D]Cornerstone, this [G]solid [A]Ground,
[D]Firm through the [G]fiercest [A]drought and [D]storm.
What [D]heights of [G]love, what [D]depths of [A]peace,
When [D]fears are [G]stilled, when [D]strivings [A]cease!
My [G] [D]Comforter, my [G]All in [A]All,
[D]Here in the [G]love of [A]Christ I [D]stand.


In [G]Christ [D]alone! Who [G]took on [A]flesh
[D]Fullness of [G]God [A]in [D]helpless babe!
This [G]gift of [D]love and [G]righteous[A]ness
[D]Scorned by the [G]ones he [A]came to [D]save:
Till [D]on that [G]cross as [D]Jesus [A]died,
The [D]wrath of [G]God was [D] [A]satisfied
For [G]every [D]sin on [G]Him was [A]laid;
[D]Here in the [G]death of [A]Christ I [D]live.


There [G]in the [D]ground His [G]body [A]lay
[D]Light of the [G]world by [A]darkness [D]slain:
Then [G]bursting [D]forth in [G]glorious [A]day
[D]Up from the [G]grave he [A]rose [D]again!
And [D]as He [G]stands in [D]victory [A]
Sin’s [D]curse has [G]lost its [D]grip on [A]me,
For [G]I am [D]His and [G]He is [A]mine
[D]Bought with the [G]precious [A]blood of [D]Christ.


No [G]guilt in [D]life, no [G]fear in [A]death,
[D]This is the [G]power of [A]Christ in [D]me;
From [G]life’s first [D]cry to [G]final [A]breath.
[D]Jesus [G]commands my [A]destiny. [D]
No [D]power of [G]hell, no [D]scheme of [A]man,
Can [D]ever [G]pluck me [D]from His [A]hand;
Till [G]He [D]returns or [G]calls me [A]home,
[D]Here in the [G]power of [A]Christ, I’ll [D]stand.
