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 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 of 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

I am so sorry that you have to deal with these sarcastic and smart alec remarks from these imbeciles. They are clearly insecure and ill informed. If they don't have anything decent to say then they just chime in for the points. Sad really.
Love the song. It tells of the love Christ suffered for us. As well as the shame and tormented feelings He must've carried for our sins. It reminds me of His precious atoning blood He shed for you and me.
Don't let others hurtful remarks bother you.
"But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those that hate you, bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you." - Jesus (Luke 6:27-28)

No they dont but check these out
Holy man open up your eyes
To the ways of the world
Youve been so blind
As the walls of religion come tumbling down
Tell what its like the Second Time around
Tell me what its like when the chaos never ends
Tell me what its like when suffering begins
Welcome to the horror of Revelations Tell me what you think of you Saviour
I reject all Biblical views of the truth
And dismiss it as folklore of its time....
badly quoted from Hanneman King and Araya to the unintiated Slayer!!!!!
Not necessarily my views but it definitly is more scariier than your pap.

Mawkishly sentimental to the point of being sinister.
