In Christ Alone (My Hope Is Found)

##

Keith Getty and Stuart Townend

      G        D         G        A
In Christ    alone my   hope is  found,
In Christ    alone, who took on flesh,
There in the ground His body     lay,
No  guilt in  life, no  fear in  death,
  D            G           Em7        D
 He is my     light, my strength, my song;
 Fullness of  God in      helpless   babe!
 Light of the world by    darkness  slain;
This is the   pow’r of  Christ in    me;
      G             D          G        A
This Cor–––––––nerstone, this solid   ground,
This gift of       love and   righteousness,
Then bursting      forth in  glorious  day,
From life’s first cry to      final   breath,
  D/F#             G     D/F#  Em7   G/A   D
 Firm through the fier––cest drought and storm.
Scorned by the     ones He    came  to    save.
  Up from the    grave  He    rose   ag––––ain!
 Jesus         commands my    dest–––in––––y.
      D/F#       G          D/F#      As  A
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
‘Till on the   cross as    Jesus     died,
And   as He    stands in   vic–––tor––y
No   Pow’r of   hell, no scheme   of man,
       D/F#       G              Bm7     As  A
When  fears are stilled, when strivings cease.
The  wrath of    God was        satis–––fied.
Sin’s curse has  lost its      grip on  me;
Can    ever     pluck me       from His hand;
       G      D        G        A
My    comfor–ter, my   All in   all,
For    ev’ry sin on   Him was  laid;
For    I am  His and  He is    mine,
‘Till He   returns or calls me home,
 D/F#             G    D/F#   Em7 G/A      D    
Here in the      love  of  Christ      I stand.
Here in the      death of  Christ      I stand.
Bought with the pre–––cious blood    of Christ.
Here in the      pow’r of  Christ   I’ll stand!
(Am7, Em7, D, A7s, D)
