1.

In Christ alone my hope is found,

He is my light, my strength, my song.

This cornerstone, this solid ground,

Firm thru 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!

2.

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.

'Til 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!

3.

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 for 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.

4.

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;

'Til He returns or calls me home,

Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.

The Universal Question

We have all

felt loneliness.

Psalm 22

Jesus

understands

loneliness.

Psalm 22

Psalm 22:1 My God, my

God, why have you forsaken

me?

Matthew 27:46 And about

the ninth hour Jesus cried out

with a loud voice, saying, "Eli,

Eli, lama sabachthani?" that

is, "My God, my God, why

have you forsaken me?"

Psalm 22:7-8 All who sneer at me; they

separate with the lip, they wag the head,

saying, “Commit yourself to the Lord; let

Him deliver him; let Him rescue him,

because He delights in him.”

Matthew 27:41 So also the chief priests,

with the scribes and elders, mocked him,

saying, 42 "He saved others; he cannot

save himself. He is the King of Israel; let

him come down now from the cross, and

we will believe in him. 43 He trusts in

God; let God deliver him now, if he

desires him.

Psalm 22:16-18 For dogs have

surrounded me; a band of evildoers

has encompassed me; they pierced

my hands and my feet. I can count all

my bones. They look, they stare at

me; they divide my garments among

them, and for my clothing they cast

lots.

Matthew 27:35 And when they had

crucified him, they divided his

garments among them by casting lots.

The psalm

ends in hope.

Psalm 22

That hope can

be ours.

Psalm 22
