In Christ Alone
V1   
F5         C5      F5         G5
In Christ alone my hope is found,
   C5        F5           G5         C5
He is my light, my strength, my song;
   F5         C5        F5        G5
this Cornerstone, this solid Ground,
    C5              F5         G5           C5 
firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
     C5             F5        C5           G5  
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
     C5             F5         C5          G5 
when fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
 F5       C5       F5         G5  
My Comforter, my All in All,
  C5            F5      G5       C5 
here in the love of Christ I stand.

V2
  F5         C5        F5          G5
In Christ alone! who took on flesh
   C5          F5      G5        C5                    
Fullness of God in helpless babe!
   F5           C5        F5        G5 
This gift of love and righteousness
    C5            F5       G5       C5 
Scorned by the ones he came to save:
    C5            F5      C5      G5 
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
    C5          F5      C5      G5  
The wrath of God was satisfied -
   F5        C5      F5        G5   
For every sin on Him was laid;
   C5           F5         G5      C5 
Here in the death of Christ I live.

V3
    F5           C5       F5       G5
There in the ground His body lay
    C5           F5        G5        C5   
Light of the world by darkness slain
    F5           C5        F5         G5  
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
    C5          F5        G5      C5 
Up from the grave he rose again!
   C5         F5      C5    G5 
And as He stands in victory
      C5           F5      C5         G5  
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me,
  F5        C5      F5       G5 
For I am His and He is mine -
     C5              F5       G5        C5 
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

V4
    F5         C5       F5          G5 
No guilt in life, no fear in death,
     C5         F5      G5         C5 
This is the power of Christ in me;
     F5              C5     F5       G5 
From life's first cry to final breath.
  C5     F5           G5    C5 
Jesus commands my destiny.   
  C5        F5        C5         G5 
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
  C5         F5        C5         G5 
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
  F5        C5        F5          G5
Till He returns or calls me home,
    C5          F5        G5           C5 
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.
