When morning Guilds the Skies

 

When morning guilds the skies

my heart awaking cries

may Jesus Christ be praised

Alike at work and prayer

let this be all my care

may Jesus Christ be praised

 

To God the word on high

the hosts of angles cry

may Jesus Christ be praised

Let mortals too upraise

their voice in hymns of praise

may Jesus Christ be praised

 

Let earth`s wide circle round

in joyful notes resound

may Jesus Christ be praised

Let air and sea and sky

from depth to height reply

may Jesus Christ be Praised

 

Be this while life is mine

my hymn of love divine

may Jesus Christ be praised

Be this the eternal song

through all the ages long

may Jesus Christ be praised.

In Christ Alone

 

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
