Christ For Us Lyrics

Christ, for us, became a mortal man

In this world of darkness to descend

As a Man of Sorrows

To behold our woes

So we sing, this our hope: Christ for us

Christ, for us, fulfilled the holy law

Bore the crushing burden for us all

Every thought and motive

Every work complete

So we sing, this our hope: Christ for us

Let His praise ring out

In the congregation

On the lips of every sinner bought by blood

With our lives laid down

As a grateful offering

To the King who ever lives for us

Christ, for us, was hung upon a cross

Paid for our redemption, what a cost

See his body broken

See his blood poured out

So we sing, this our hope: Christ for us

Christ, for us, was laid within a tomb

But the Light was greater than the gloom

He arose victorious

To immortal life

So we sing, this our hope: Christ for us

Let His praise ring out

In the congregation

On the lips of every sinner bought by blood

With our lives laid down

As a grateful offering

To the King who ever lives for us

Christ, for us, now stands before the throne

Pleading with the Father for His own

Till the final trumpet

He will keep our souls

So we sing, this our hope: Christ for us

Let His praise ring out

In the congregation

On the lips of every sinner bought by blood

With our lives laid down

As a grateful offering

To the King who ever lives for us

Christ, for us, will one day come again

In this world of darkness to descend

For his foes, in conquest

For his bride, in love

So we sing, this our hope: Christ for us

So we sing, this our hope: Christ for us
