I love this song. It's called In Christ Alone. It's quickly become one of my favs!

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 fleshFulness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousnessScorned by the ones he came to save:
Till 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.

There in the ground His body layLight of the world by darkness slain:
Then bursting forth in glorious DayUp from the grave he rose again!
And as He stands in victorySin'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 in life, no fear in 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;
Till He returns or calls me home,Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.


*Today I'm thankful that Sarah (Ivy's babysitter) brought Ivy to see me yesterday. So fun and such a special treat.
