In Christ Alone Tab

by Townend Stuart


I didn't think what was here was really quite right, so I got this from the version we 
on our band. Fits well and anyone can play it.

Capo 3rd

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


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


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


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