Christ Jesus Hath the Power

Christ Je­sus hath the pow­er

The pow­er to for­give

The pow­er to quick­en whom He will

And make the sin­ner live.

Christ Je­sus hath the pow­er

O tell it far and near!

O bring to Him your guil­ty heart

And grace shall ban­ish fear!

Christ Je­sus hath the pow­er

The pow­er of God He wields!

Christ Je­sus hath the pow­er

My heart sur­ren­der yields!

Christ Je­sus hath the pow­er

I trust Him ev­er­more!

Christ Je­sus hath the pow­er

I wor­ship and ad­ore!

Christ Je­sus hath the pow­er

The pow­er to re­new

The pow­er to cleanse your heart from sin

And make you whol­ly true.

Christ Je­sus hath the pow­er

For ev­er­more to keep;

O none can pluck you from His hand

Or rob Him of His sheep!

Christ Je­sus hath the pow­er

The power to con­sole

The pow­er to car­ry all your care—

On Him your bur­dens roll.

Christ Je­sus hath the pow­er

To wipe the tear away;

O place in Him your con­fi­dence!

O trust Him

and ob­ey!

Christ Je­sus hath the pow­er

The pow­er to de­stroy

The power to bruise your ene­my

Who would your soul an­noy.

Christ Je­sus hath the pow­er

When on your dy­ing bed

To give your soul the vic­to­ry

The pow­er to raise the dead!
