I cry every time I sing this song. It is so powerful! So simple. I can't help but get to a state of worship.
The last verse, last two lines. They get me every time!
"Till He returns, or calls me home Here in the power of Christ I stand."
Here are all the lyrics:
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 it's grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Brought 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

This was soo good...All the words deliver a powerful message, but you are right, the last two lines just say it all. Have a wonderful day. Blessings, Debbie
I absolutely love this song!
This is truly an incredible song, because it really says so much about our God...not just the same three words over and over, but a very real description of who He is! I also love the last two lines...to be with Him when He calls us HOME! Praise His Wonderful Name!
God bless!
Mary
