LIVING HOPE
Artist: Phil Wickham
Verse 1:
How great the chasm
That lay 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, my living hope
Verse 2:
Who could imagine
So great a mercy,
What heart could fathom
Such boundless grace
The God of ages stepped down from glory
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
Chorus 1: - (2X)
Hallelu-jah, praise the One
who set me free
Hallelu-jah, death has lost
its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There's salvation in Your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Verse 3:
Then came the morning
That sealed the promise
Your buried body
Began to breathe
Out of the silence,
The Roaring Lion
Declared the grave
Has no claim on me
Then came the morning
That sealed the promise
Your buried body
Began to breathe
Out of the silence,
The Roaring Lion
Declared the grave
Has no claim on me
Jesus, Yours is the victory
Chorus 2:
Hallelu-jah, praise the One
who set me free
Hallelu-jah, death has lost
its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There's salvation in Your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Hallelu-jah, praise the One
who set me free
Hallelu-jah, 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
