In Christ Alone

Ever since I posted my blog yesterday asking "Who Are We Trusting?", this song has been playing on the soundtrack of my soul:

Click here: Frank Reich/Michael English - In Christ Alone

In Christ alone will I glory,
Though I could pride myself in battles won.
For I've been blessed beyond measure,
And by His strength alone, I overcome.
Oh, I could stop and count successes,
Like diamonds in my hands.
But these trophies could not equal,
To the grace, by which I stand.

In Christ alone, I place my trust,
And find my glory, in the power of the cross.
In every victory, let it be said of me,
My source of strength, My source of hope... Is Christ alone.

In Christ alone will I glory,
For only by His grace I am redeemed.
And only His tender mercy,
Could reach beyond my weakness to my need.
Now I seek no greater honor,
Than just to know Him more.
And to count my gains but losses,
And to the glory of my Lord.

In Christ alone, I place my trust,
And find my glory, in the power of the cross.
In every victory, let it be said of me,
My source of strength, My source of hope... Is Christ alone.


By Faith! In Faith! (Hebrews 11)

In Christ Alone
Your identity, worth, meaning, and joy are in Christ alone – not in your performance or what people think of you. 110 times the Apostle Paul urges us to place ourselves “in Christ.”

I want to be "in Christ" and I want "Christ in" me. Amen.
