Alive in Christ
By Marsha Greene
Verse 1
Before the world began, You called my name
Blessed me in Christ, for Your glory and praise
In love You chose me, adopted as Your own
Redeemed by the blood, now I’m never alone
Pre-Chorus
Every blessing from heaven poured out in Your Son
According to Your will, Your purpose is done
Chorus
I am alive in Christ, by grace I am saved
From death into life, the stone rolled away
No longer a stranger, no longer a slave
I stand in the riches of mercy You gave
Verse 2
You opened my eyes to the hope of Your call
The power that raised Him now lives in us all
Seated with Christ in the heavenly place
All things beneath Him, all ruled by Your grace
Pre-Chorus
You are the Head and the Church is Your bride
Your fullness within us, Your Spirit our guide
Chorus
I am alive in Christ, by grace I am saved
From death into life, the stone rolled away
No longer a stranger, no longer a slave
I stand in the riches of mercy You gave
Bridge
I was dead in my sin, following fear
But God rich in mercy has met me right here
Not by my works, not by what I’ve done
This is Your gift through Jesus the Son
We are Your workmanship, shaped by Your hand
Created for good works, walking Your plan
Broken walls falling, You make us as one
Near by the cross, Your peace has begun
Chorus (Final)
We are alive in Christ, by grace we are saved
Raised up together, our debt fully paid
One holy people, Your temple of praise
Built on the cornerstone, Jesus our way
Outro
To the praise of Your glory, forever we sing
All honor and power to Christ our King
