Jesus, My Only Hope

What a happy song! What power and joy is in the gospel.

Jesus, My Only Hope

I come into Your presence

With nothing in my hands

I only bring thanksgiving

For Jesus, God and Man

I cast myself on mercy

I cast myself on love

I trust Your gracious promise

To wash me with Your blood

I will not fear Your judgement

For me no wrath I dread

For it was spent on Jesus

Poured out upon His head

When Satan's accusations

Make my poor heart afraid

I hear my King declaring

"Father, that debt is paid!"

Jesus my only hope

My only plea

My righteousness

My Great High Priest

Who intercedes for me

Before the throne

Jesus, I trust in You alone
