Hi everyone, welcome Hive Openmic Community week #257, it's still your humble girl @adyma. This week's theme "Quarezma" is an amazing one and I'm so glad to take part. For this week I will be doing a cover of a population hymn titled "IN CHRIST ALONE"
"In Christ Alone" is a beloved hymn that holds special significance during the Easter season, as it powerfully expresses the core beliefs of the Christian faith and the significance of Jesus Christ's death and resurrection. The lyrics walk us through the different aspects of Christ's role in salvation, making it a perfect choice for Easter preparations.
The hymn emphasizes the all-encompassing role of Jesus Christ in providing hope, strength, and peace to believers. This focus on Christ's sufficiency resonates deeply during Easter, as Christians reflect on the sacrifice and victory of the crucifixion and resurrection.
The lyrics highlight the paradox of Christ's deity and humanity, and the gift of love and righteousness offered through his sacrificial death on the cross. This directly connects to the Easter narrative, reminding believers of the purpose and power of Christ's death and resurrection.
"Here in the death of Christ I live" powerfully captures the Easter message of hope and new life through Christ's resurrection. As believers prepare for Easter, this hymn reinforces the transformative impact of the resurrection on our lives.
"In Christ Alone" serves as a poignant reminder of the foundational beliefs of Christianity, making it an ideal hymn for Easter preparations. Its focus on the centrality of Christ, the sacrifice and triumph of the cross, and the promise of new life through resurrection invites believers to reflect on the significance of Easter and deepen their faith during this sacred season.
Song lyrics
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, I live
