Living Hope

(album: The Worship Initiative, Vol. 16 - 2018)

How great the chasm that laid between us
How high the mountain I could not climb
In desperation I turned to heaven
And spoke Your Name into the night

Then through the darkness
Your loving kindness
Tore through the shadows of my soul
The work is finished
The end is written
Jesus Christ our living hope

Who could imagine so great a mercy
What heart could fathom such boundless grace
The God of ages
Stepped down from gory
To wear my sin
And bear my shame

The cross has spoken
I am forgiven
The King of Kings calls me his own
Beautiful Savior
I'm yours forever
Jesus Christ my living hope

Hallelujah
Praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah
Death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There's salvation in Your Name
Jesus Christ my living hope

Hallelujah
Praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah
Death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There's salvation in Your Name
Jesus Christ my living hope

Then came the morning
That sealed the promise
Your burried body
Began to breathe
Out of the silence
The roaring lion
Declared the grave has no claim on me
Jesus Yours is the victory

Hallelujah
Praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah
Death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There's salvation in Your Name
Jesus Christ my living hope

Hallelujah
Praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah
Death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There's salvation in Your Name
Jesus Christ my living hope

Jesus Christ my living hope
God You are my living hope
