My Hope for Life Beyond the Grave

My hope for life beyond the grave
Lies not in deeds that I have done
But in the saving power of grace
That comes by faith in God's own Son

My hope is Jesus' perfect life
His righteousness applied to me
My hope is His atoning death
His sacrifice on Calvary
My hope is in His empty tomb
His resurrection is my life
My ev'ry hope is anchored to
The saving love of Christ

My name is written in His scroll
My heart is cleansed with His own blood
His Spirit lives within my soul
My hope is anchored in His love

My hope is Jesus' perfect life
His righteousness applied to me
My hope is His atoning death
His sacrifice on Calvary
My hope is in His empty tomb
His resurrection is my life
My ev'ry hope is anchored to
The saving love of Christ

And when my time on earth is done
I will not fear what lies beyond
With holy confidence I'll run
Into the outstretched arms of God

My hope is Jesus' perfect life
His righteousness applied to me
My hope is His atoning death
His sacrifice on Calvary
My hope is in His empty tomb
His resurrection is my life
My ev'ry hope is anchored to
The saving love of Christ
The saving love of Christ
