Living Hope [Lyrics, 4/4] [Wickham] by Brian Johnson and Phil Wickham

Verse 1
How great the chasm that lay be – tween us
How high the mountain I could not climb
In desper – ation I turned to heaven
And spoke Your name in – to 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 im – agine 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 for – given
The King of kings calls me His own
Beautiful Saviour I’m Yours for – ever Jesus Christ my living hope

Chorus 1
Halle – lujah praise the One who set me free
Halle – lujah death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain there’s sal – vation in Your name
Jesus Christ my liv – ing hope

Halle – lujah praise the One who set me free
Halle – lujah death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain there’s sal – vation in Your name
Jesus Christ my liv – ing 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 vic – tory

Chorus 2
Halle – lujah praise the One who set me free
Halle – lujah death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain there’s sal – vation in Your name
Jesus Christ my liv – ing hope
Halle – lujah praise the One who set me free
Halle – lujah death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain there’s sal – vation in Your name
Jesus Christ my liv – ing hope

Ending
Jesus Christ my liv – ing hope
O God You are my liv – ing hope

There are exemptions from the requirement to wear non-medical masks or face coverings and you can read HERE for more information. If you have an exemption you will not be required to provide proof of exemption.
• As we continue to function as a church that is both on-line and in-person the stage area in the auditorium will be a Not For Public Access Area and those leading from the stage will not be required to wear masks when doing so.
• Hand sanitizer will be available at check-in and throughout the building.
• Please remember to maintain social distancing regulations both in the service and in the parking lot. Parents, please keep your children with you.
