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

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

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

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


I like to play the last line a second time to end the song, but it works fine 
once. This is a simple yet great song, one of my favorites!!

Please rate and comment, and I will correct any mistakes.
