Sermon My Hope is Found
Closing Hymn “In Christ Alone the Solid Rock”
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 sins curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine bought with the precious blood of Christ!
On Christ the Solid Rock I stand all other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand! on Christ the Solid Rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand all other ground is sinking sand!
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!
Here in the power of Christ, I’ll stand! here in the power of Christ, I’ll stand!
