Living Hope Lyrics & Chords

By Phil Wickham

Verse 1

(G)How great the chasm that lay (D)between us

How high the (C)mountain (Em)I could not (D)climb

In despe(G)ration, I turned to (D)heaven

And spoke Your (C)name (D)into the (G)night

Then through the (C)darkness, Your loving-(G)kindness

Tore through the (Em)shadows of my (D)soul

The work is (G)finished, the end is (D)written

Jesus (C)Christ, my (D)living (G)hope



Verse 2

Who could imagine 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 forgiven

The King of kings calls me His own

Beautiful Savior, I'm Yours forever

Jesus Christ, my living hope



Chorus

Halle(C)lu(G)jah, praise the (D)One who set me (Em)free

Halle(C)lu(G)jah, death has (D)lost its grip on (Em)me

You have (C)broken every (G)chain

There's sal(D)vation in Your (Em)name

Jesus (C)Christ, my (D)living (G)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 victory, whoa!



Chorus

Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free

Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me

You have broken every chain

There's salvation in Your name

Jesus Christ, my living hope



Outro

Jesus Christ, my living hope

Oh God, You are my living hope
