IN CHRIST ALONE chords and lyrics By KEITH GETTY VERSION
Verse 1 :
D A D E
In Christ alone my hope is found,
A/C# D E A
He is my light, my strength, my song;
D A D E
This Cornerstone, this solid Ground,
A/C# D E A
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
A/C# D A/C# E
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
A/C# D A/C# E
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
D A D E
My Comforter, my All in All,
A/C# D E A
Here in the love of Christ I stand.
Verse 2 :
D A D E
In Christ alone! Who took on flesh
A/C# D E A
Fulness of God in helpless babe!
D A D E
This gift of love and righteousness
A/C# D E A
Scorned by the ones he came to save:
A/C# D A/C# E
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
A/C# D A/C# E
The wrath of God was satisfied
D A D E
For every sin on Him was laid;
A/C# D E A
Here in the death of Christ I live.
Verse 3 :
D A D E
There in the ground His body lay
A/C# D E A
Light of the world by darkness slain:
D A D E
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
A/C# D E A
Up from the grave he rose again!
A/C# D A/C# E
And as He stands in victory
A/C# D A/C# E
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me,
D A D E
For I am His and He is mine
A/C# D E A
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.
Verse 4 :
D A D E
No guilt in life, no fear in death,
A/C# D E A
This is the power of Christ in me;
D A D E
From life's first cry to final breath.
A/C# D E A
Jesus commands my destiny.
A/C# D A/C# E
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
A/C# D A/C# E
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
D A D E
Till He returns or calls me home,
A/C# D E A
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand
