VERSE 1
How great the chasm that lay between us
How high the mountain I could not climb
In desperation, I turned to heaven
And I spoke Your name into the night
VERSE 2
Then through the darkness
Your lovingkindness
Tore through the shadows of my soul
The work finished, the end is written
Jesus Christ, my living hope
VERSE 3
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
VERSE 4
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
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
VERSE 5
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
TAG
Jesus Yours is the victory
Yours is the victory Jesus
ENDING
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Jesus Christ, You’re my living hope
Jesus my living hope
You’re my living hope
Living Hope (Live)
