E A D E A E A E
1 My hope is in the Lord Who gave Him-self for me,
2 No mer-it of my own His an-ger to sup - press:
3 And now for me He stands Be - fore the Fa-ther's throne:
4 His grace has planned it all 'Tis mine but to be-leive
E7 A E A7 D A E A
1 And paid the price of all my sin at Cal - va -ry.
2 My on-ly hope is found in Je-sus' right- eous-ness.
3 He shows His wound'ed hands and names me as His own.
4 And rec-og-nize his work of love, and Christ re-ceive.
Chorus
E A E E7 A
For me He died, For me He lives;
D A E E7 A D A E A
And ev-er-last-ing life and light he free-ly gives.
