For Hive Open Mic Week 297, with the theme “Call Me,” I decided to do a cover of one of my favorite hymns. This song is very special to me because it was sung during my wedding, and it carries deep meaning in my life. It reminds me of the day I truly heard the call of Jesus Christ and chose to lay all my confidence in Him alone.
In Christ, I have placed my trust, my hope, and my future. No matter what comes my way, this song keeps my faith alive because it reminds me that Jesus never fails. He is constant, faithful, and always present, even in difficult times. Whenever I sing or listen to this hymn, my heart is strengthened and my spirit is lifted.
In times like these, it is important for everyone to define who they are and hold firmly to their faith. For me, holding on to Jesus gives me peace and direction. This hymn has been covered by many amazing musicians over the years, but I chose to render it in my own simple and heartfelt way, expressing my personal journey and belief.
I truly hope you enjoy this cover and that it blesses you as much as it blesses me. Thank you for listening, and once again, Merry Christmas to you all. 🎄✨
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 flesh,
Fullness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousness,
Scorned by the ones He came to save.
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of God was satisfied;
For ev’ry sin on Him was laid--
Here in the death of Christ I live.
There in the ground His body lay,
Light of the world by darkness slain;
Then bursting forth in glorious day,
Up from the grave He rose again!
And as He stands in victory,
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me;
For I am His and He is mine--
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.
