In Christ Alone
Is found my hope
He saved me
When I was at the end
Of my rope

My Redeemer
He set my soul free
God breathed
New life
In me

My Lord
His sovereign grace
Saved a wretch
Like me
Christ saves every race

My Savior
In Him I am complete
Christ died for me
Every single sin
I have a Lord so sweet

My King
Whom I adore
Christ provides
For my every need
My fate is secure

The noble knight
Advanced into battle
Riding his white steed
He thrusts his spear
Into many a Saracen
This was mortal combat
Satanic Islam spread
Across the Middle East
Like a vicious cancer
Taking over
Historic Christian lands
The Saracens raped, looted
And murdered their way
Across the Holy Land
Convert to Islam or die
Many of those in Christ
Took the path of the martyr
The Saracens advance into
Western Europe ground to a halt
Thanks to many a brave
And courageous Christian
Who shed their blood
So that Christendom
Would be free
No heavy yoke of sharia law
For the green lands
Of Western Europe

My sister Vi and I
Gaze out our windows
Admiring the first snow
Of this winter
In each unique snowflake
Is a crystalline microcosm
So too are our souls
Each unique
Those who are in Christ
Have been washed
In His precious blood
New creations
We are made as white
As new fallen snow

Divine Logos
Uncreated and eternal
Condescends as a human
Man in God
God in man
Totally man
Whilst totally God
Who can fathom
A deep mystery
Miracle of miracles
The God Man lives
Infant babe
King of Kings
A spotless Lamb
Lord of Lords
Christ was born to die
So that we may live

I am the wild wolf
That stalks the night
I run and run
Looking for some fun

Ahead I spy
A lamb that lets out a cry
I go in for the kill
Oh what a thrill

But this lamb is not alone
The Good Shepherd did atone
He guards the lamb
It’s safe from my bedlam

I was lost at sea
I had no hope
Then Christ rescued me

He freed me from all sin
I am a new creation
Because of His propitiation

Christ the spotless Lamb
He died to free
Those who were damn

At Calvary Christ bore
God’s full wrath
He opened Heaven’s door

Amazing grace set me free
It was wholly unmerited
I was blind and now I see

The wages of sin is death
What happens
When I take
My last breath

Death has no sting
For believers
Thanks to Calvary
Alleluia I sing

For those of us in Christ
To be absent the body
Is to be present with the Lord
Because of His sacrifice

My heart was black and dead
Christ died for me
A wretched sinner
He died in my stead

God gifted me
Repentance and faith
When I heard the Gospel
His sovereign grace is free

Salvation is by grace
We do nothing to merit it
Oh happy day
When I shall see Jesus’ face

Through faith alone
We are justified
We didn’t merit it at all
Because Christ did atone

We are a creation that’s new
Our hearts of stone
Become hearts flesh
The number of the Elect are few

The gospel we must spread
To every nation
And every tribe
Until we are dead

I pray for Christ’s return
He shall come
As the Lion of Judah
We are here for a sojourn

I slumbered all day
Much to my dismay

I was out like a light
I slept all day and night

My dreams were crazy
My recollection is hazy

My mind is in a fog
I dozed like a hog

I didn’t make a peep
I was in a deep sleep

I saw a broad way
With billions of souls

I saw Orthodox galore
And Catholics even more

I saw a sign
Hell it said over the line

These poor souls were damned
They were inflamed

They had trusted in their deeds
They had confidence in creeds

The Gospel they never believed
In sin they were conceived

I saw a narrow way
Upon it trod the saints who pray

They were redeemed by sovereign grace
The light of Christ shone from their face

This was what I saw
Sinners condemned by the law

And saints who repented of their sin
They trusted in Christ’s propitiation

Born from above
By the divine dove

The second birth
An occasion for mirth

I was lost in sin
Christ was my propitiation

Oh happy day
When the gospel is on full display

God chose us by His sovereign grace
His Elect comes from every race

God gives us a nature that’s new
Now sin we do eschew

God grants men faith and repentance
These double gifts our acceptance

Our salvation can never be lost
God’s grace we won’t exhaust

So be born again
All ye men
