120. Christ, my All

1 In the hour when guilt assails me,
On His gracious name I call,
Then I find the heavenly fullness,
Christ, my righteousness, my all.

Chorus:
All my song when standing yonder,
Shall be Christ, my joy, my all,
This shall ever be my anthem,
"Christ my glory, Christ my all."
This shall ever be my anthem,
"Christ my glory, Christ my all."

2 In the night when sorrow clouds me,
And the burning teardrops fall,
Then I sing the song of patience,
Christ, my Brother and my all. [Chorus]

3 In the day when this immortal
Shall fling off its mortal thrall,
Then my song of resurrection
Shall be Christ, my all in all. [Chorus]

4 In the land of promised glory,
In the angel-crowded hall,
This shall ever be my anthem—
"Christ, my everlasting all." [Chorus]
