In Christ Alone

Here I stand my ground

In Christ’s love abound

Where I find infinite peace

His grace will never cease



Through storms, I am secure

In droughts, I can endure

Because He gives me solace

When I drink from his chalice



My Christ wore human flesh

Until it was stripped like mesh

Rejected by the ones he loved

He fulfilled the plan of God above



There on that cross at Calvary

The sins of this world he carried

And when he breathed his last

Our eternal punishment was cast



In a tomb, his lifeless body lay

Then resurrected in three days

From the grave He rose again

And freed us from sin’s chains



My life was a ransom now paid

Sin would not leave me weighed

Forever, He holds my heart’s key

From now on I will live in victory

In Christ Alone

Here I stand my ground
In Christ’s love abound
Where I find infinite peace
His grace will never cease

Through storms, I am secure
In droughts, I can endure
Because He gives me solace
When I drink from His chalice

My Christ wore human flesh
Until it was stripped like mesh
Rejected by the ones He loved
He fulfilled the plan of God above

There on that cross at Calvary
The sins of this world He carried
And when He breathed His last
Our eternal punishment was cast

In a tomb His lifeless body lay
Then resurrected in three days
From the grave, He rose again
And freed us from sin’s chains

My life was a ransom now paid
Sin would not leave me weighed
Forever, He holds my heart’s key
From now on, I will live in victory

hey there
Ive seen a bit of your work recently
You obvisouly take a lot of religous references and that seems to be a really strong part of your life
do you mind me asking what church you belong to?
