BEAUTIFUL SALVATION
(3 part antiphonal singing)
Christ before me!
Christ behind me!
Christ above me!
Christ beneath me!
Christ to lead me
Christ to guide me
Christ within me
Christ to win me!--
What a beautiful salvation!
What a hope, what a healing!
Here in your presence, I know you are enough--
I am complete in your grace.
You were willing to die in my place.
You are the truest
The only wise Lord, and
Your love is kindly in
What You have stored up.
Lend me your heart and
Your spirit inside me
to finish the race that you started
whole-heartedly…. whole-heartedly…
What a beautiful salvation!
What a hope, what a healing!
Strong and certain, I'm safe in your hand
What a mysterious feat!
What a powerful plan.
Chant:
Christ before me!
Christ behind me!
Christ above me!
Christ beneath me!
Christ to lead me
Christ to guide me
Christ within me
Christ to win me!--
What a beautiful salvation!
What a hope, what a healing!
There, I will know you,-- the Bright and Morning Star
With treasures of souls singing praise.--
There, we will see face to face.
