Joy's Helper

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

There in the ground his body lay,
Light of the World by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious day
up from 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 of 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.

Till He returns or calls me home
here in the power of Christ, I'll stand.
