| Tune: | [Christ alone is our salvation] |
1 Christ alone is our salvation,
Christ the rock on which we stand;
Other than this sure foundation
Will be found but sinking sand.
Christ, His cross and resurrection,
Is alone the sinners' plea;
At the throne of God's perfection
Nothing else can set him free.
2 We have all things, Christ possessing:
Life eternal, second birth;
Present pardon, peace, and blessing,
While we tarry here on earth;
And by faith's anticipation,
Foretaste of the joy above,
Freely given us with salvation,
By the Father in His love.
3 When we perfect joy shall enter,
'Tis in Him our bless will rise;
He's the essence, soul, and center
Of the glory in the skies:
In redemption's wondrous story
Planned before our parents' fall,
From the cross unto the glory,
Jesus Christ is all in all.
