Lyrics:
How great the chasm that lay between us
How high the mountain I could not climb
In desperation, I turned to heaven
And spoke Your name into the night
Then through the darkness, Your loving-kindness
Tore through the shadows of my soul
The work is finished, the end is written
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Who could imagine so great a mercy?
What heart could fathom such boundless grace?
The God of ages stepped down from glory
To wear my sin and bear my shame
The cross has spoken, I am forgiven
The King of kings calls me His own
Beautiful Savior, I’m Yours forever
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There’s salvation in Your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There’s salvation in Your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Then came the morning that sealed the promise
Your buried body began to breathe
Out of the silence, the Roaring Lion
Declared the grave has no claim on me
Then came the morning that sealed the promise
Your buried body began to breathe
Out of the silence, the Roaring Lion
Declared the grave has no claim on me
Jesus, Yours is the victory, whoa!
Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There’s salvation in Your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There’s salvation in Your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Oh God, You are my living hope

Unbelievable. My goodness me is he anointed.
Isn't this guy amazing! What a talent, what a grace, what a melody! May God bless you, Phil!
Jesus Christ my living hope.Hallelujah!
no autotune. no need for special effects. Just a beautiful genuine hart worshiping God.
Love it
Would have been an amazing song if not for the Semi-Pelagianism. I like Phil alot, but I critique him on the theology of this song. "In deserpation, I turn to heaven"… we do not have the ability to do that outside of God's grace. God calls us….we don't call out to God. Guitar has an amazing tone!
Lord god, thank you for the talent you gave to me. Thank you so much
Praise the one who set me free! ❤
1st Corinthians 15:54-57
"When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written:
Death is swallowed up in victory
O death, where is your victory?
O death, where is your sting?
The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ."
Thank you Jesus ❤
I just love Phil Wickham. His heart of worship and how much he desperately sings about our Lord and Savior and His resurrection power. My heart soars.
Mason, much?
❤❤❤
Some wacky chords here. The song is in the key of Eb, he's playing in the Key of E with his guitar tuned a half step down…. but I can't figure out those into chords even if transposing to regular E. Anybody help me out on those intro chords?!
Seen a lot of comments on his singing voice. Well he had to get surgery on his vocal cords, I think in 2014, where he couldn't talk for like 2 months. Made him more humble than he already was and praises Jesus everyday for his gift to sing the Gospel to all. He's an inspiration to us all 🙂
Any guesses to the tuning of his guitar?
God willing I will get to this man in concert one day, ohhh we going to Praise and Worship that sweet Name Jesus!!!!!! Glory Jesus!!!! Celebrating 11/11/14 the day when death was destroyed and Freedom was given to me, I’m a witness Jesus will set you freee, receive and believe, stand on Jesus as your rock as if everything else is sinking sand!!!
Which style of Taylor is his guitar?
Amazing Phil! Love it my brother. We will sing His praises for eternity!

When our worship sing this at our church I cry with joy (every time) as this was the song that sealed my faith with my lord Jesus my saviour..
Love this! The last verse touches my heart every time. “Your buried body began to breathe.” Powerful poetry!
wow. talk about bearing your soul. truly incredible. what a blessing to run across this. Thank you(!!!!) Phil Wickham for letting us share in your worship experience. It's hard enough to play the guitar, and to be able to play AND sing a song, but to play and sing with the "joyful abandon" that you do …Just amazing. (!) Thanks!
Amazing talent!!! This song is so wonderful. Praise God ♥︎♥︎
your good..hallelujah Amen
So beautiful. Sums up perfectly my christian life. Would love to see see live. When you coming to london, uk?
4:27 his voice is literally resonating with the guitar
Yeshu Naam Ki Jai!!!
I just want to hear the story of this song. How can you create a amazing lyrics like that?
What a performance you are truly blessed by God
So good man…
Strings?
His voice good
Saludos desde la Ciudad de México !!!!!!!

You can play this to set capo at 6th fret, and play A chord.
Or, set capo at 8th fret, and play G chord.

Ur singing is gifted..this song comes out easy when you feel the song with all your heart

Amen.
The greatest that ever lived; He had no servants, yet they called Him Master. He had no degree, yet they called Him Teacher. He had no medicines, yet they called Him Healer. He had no army, yet Kings feared Him. He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world. He had no crime, yet they crucified Him. He had no need, yet He forgave them as they mocked. He loves you so much He took the punishment of your sin. He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today. His name is Jesus Christ and He is the Saviour of the world.
