My life is in you, Lord;
My strength is in you, Lord;
My hope is in you, Lord; in you, it’s in you. (Repeat)
I will praise You with all of my life
I will praise You with all of my strength
With all of my life, with all of my strength
All of my hope is in You
My life is in you, Lord;
My strength is in you, Lord;
My hope is in you, Lord; in you, it’s in you. (Repeat)
“Great is Thy faithfulness,” O God my Father,
There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not
As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.
“Great is Thy faithfulness!” “Great is Thy faithfulness!”
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided—
“Great is Thy faithfulness,” Lord, unto me!

Because of what the Lord has done for us. (Repeat)

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
‘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
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 of 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
In His time, in His time,
He makes all thing beautiful in His time.
Lord, please show me everyday,
As You’re teaching me Your way,
That You do just what You say, in Your time.
In Your time, in Your time,
You make all thing beautiful in Your time.
Lord, my life to You I bring,
May each song I have to sing,
Be to You a lovely thing, in Your time.
My Jesus, my Savior,
Lord, there is none like You.
All of my days, I want to praise,
The wonders of Your mighty love.
My comfort, my Shelter,
Tower of refuge and strength,
Let every breath, all that I am,
Never cease to worship You.
Shout to the Lord,
All the earth let us sing,
Power and Majesty, Praise to the King,
Mountains bow down and the seas will roar,
At the sound of Your Name,
I sing for joy at the works of Your Hands,
Forever I’ll love you,
Forever I’ll stand,
Nothing compares to the promise,
I have in You.
