My Hope In Christ


This was in my mind during a time of life when Christ needed, had to be, my comfort, joy and peace. The place where my heart had to find the eternal truth in the middle of trying times. May the LORD be your peace, joy, and comfort today as you read this. Love in Jesus,

There will be a day, when death no longer reigns
When sadness, grief, and strife, no longer have a claim
Darkness and brokenness will be banished, out of sight.
No longer claiming presence, no longer quenching light.

O Death, where is your sting? And Death, where is your grasp?
Your cold fingers have been vanquished, your memory has lapsed.
You found yourself condemned, defeated at the cross.
You now are gone forever, you now are forever lost.

The Victor of the battle, the King crowned mighty warrior,
He stands with Glory and power, and commands the hosts on high.
His Name is a strong tower, He shelters with His wings
He is Jesus Christ our Savior, our LORD, King of Kings.

No power can be stronger, no presence match his Might,
He is the LORD Almighty, his enemies take their flight.
My God shall win the battle, and rule and reign on high,
For nothing can stand in His way, all powers will stand by.

With just a word, his enemies will be defeated,
One breath of His will end the fight,
And once the again the world will see who stands in full might.

Oh death, where is your sting? And death, where is your grasp?
Look no more, dear Christian, for death which cannot be,
For Christ has destroyed His enemy for all eternity.
