Christ Alone

by Eliza M. Sherman

Christ alone shall be my song,
Christ alone my story;
From the cross a radiance shines
To the God of glory.

Christ alone shall be my praise,
For on Calv’ry’s mountain,
From His side in living flood
Flowed life’s precious fountain.

Christ alone shall be my trust,
And His love my pleading;
While He stands before God’s throne,
For me interceding.

Christ alone shall be my song,
He my sure foundation;
Christ my glory and my hope—
Christ my soul’s salvation.

Chorus:

Christ alone! Christ alone!
Christ the hope of glory;
Christ alone! Christ alone!
Praise in song and story.
