In Christ Alone

In Christ alone will I glory,
Though I could pride myself in battles won,
For I've been blessed beyond measure,
And by His strength alone I've overcome.
Oh, I could stop and count possessions,
Like diamonds in my hand,
But those trophies could not equal,
To the grace by which I stand.

In Christ alone I place my trust,
And find my glory in the power of the cross.
In every victory let it be said of me,
My source of strength, my source of hope,
Is Christ alone.

In Christ alone will I glory,
For only by His grace I am redeemed.
And only His tender mercy,
Can reach beyond my weakness to my need.
Now, I seek no greater honor,
But just to know Him more,
And to count my gains but losses,
To the glory of my Lord!

In Christ alone I place my trust,
And find my glory in the power of the cross.
In every victory let it be said of me,
My source of strength, my source of hope,
Is Christ alone.

My hope is built on nothing less,
Than Jesus blood and righteousness,
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus' name.
On Christ the solid Rock I stand,
All other ground is sinking sand,
Sinking sand...

In Christ alone I place my trust,
And find my glory in the power of the cross,
In every victory let it be said of me,
My source of strength, my source of hope,
Is Christ alone.

My source of strength,
My source of hope,
My solid Rock,
Is Christ Alone...
Is Christ Alone!

-a song of praise and worship to Jesus, my Rock and my Redeemer
