Powerful words

Rescue

You are the source of life
I can't be left behind
No one else will do
I will take hold of you

I need you Jesus
To come to my rescue
Where else can I go
There's no other name by which I am saved
Capture me with grace

My heart is Your's for life
I need your hand in mine
No one else will do
I put my trust in you

I need you Jesus
To come to my rescue
Where else can I go
There's no other name by which I am saved
Capture me with grace

I need you Jesus
To come to my rescue
Where else can I go
There's no other name by which I am saved
Capture me with grace
I will follow you
I will follow you

This world has nothing for me
This world has nothing for me
This world has nothing for me

I need you Jesus 
To come to my rescue
Where else can I go
There's no other name by which I am saved
Capture me with grace

I need you Jesus 
To come to my rescue
Where else can I go
There's no other name by which I am saved
Capture me with grace
Capture me with grace
Won't you capture me with grace

I will follow you
I will follow you
I will follow you

In Christ Alone

In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm

What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled and strivings cease
My comforter, my all in all
Here in the love of Christ, I'll stand

In Christ alone, who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones he came to save

'til that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was lain
Here in the death of Christ I live

There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then, bursting forth in glorious day
Up from the grave He rose again

And as He stands in victory
Sin's curse has lost it's grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ

No guilt in life no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life's first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from his hand
"til he returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I'll Stand

I just heard the first song, Rescue, at my highschool church group, and I couldn't stop crying. At the part where it says that we need Jesus to rescue us, it felt like I was saying God, I'm a sinner, help me. Afterwards, I felt lighter, after service, and I was a lot happier. I am still now. Love this song... :)
