VERSE 1
On a hill in Israel
Mercy spoke for me
Mercy spoke for me
Mercy spoke for me
It was on Golgotha’s tree
His death brought liberty
His death brought liberty
His death brought liberty
CHORUS
May I never boast in anything
Except the cross of Jesus Christ
May I not forget the blood He shed
It is by His death I am alive
Because of Christ, I am alive
VERSE 2
What a humble sacrifice
Love that washed me clean
Love that washed me clean
Love that washed me clean
What a blessed mystery
His punishment, my peace
His punishment, my peace
His punishment, my peace
CHORUS
May I never boast in anything
Except the cross of Jesus Christ
May I not forget the blood He shed
It is by His death I am alive
Because of Christ, I am alive
BRIDGE
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Praise the one who set me free
Death has lost its grip on me
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Jesus rose in victory
He’s alive, alive in me
CHORUS
May I never boast in anything
Except the cross of Jesus Christ
May I not forget the blood He shed
It is by His death I am alive
Because of Christ, I am alive
Because of Christ, I am alive
Because of Christ, I am alive
BRIDGE
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Praise the one who set me free
Death has lost its grip on me
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Jesus rose in victory
He’s alive, alive in me

4 Relevant Bible Passages about Because of Christ
then you should all know, and all the people of Israel should know, that this man stands here before you completely well through the power of the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth—whom you crucified and whom God raised from death. Jesus is the one of whom the scripture says, ‘The stone that you the builders despised turned out to be the most important of all.’ Salvation is to be found through him alone; in all the world there is no one else whom God has given who can save us.” Acts 4:10-12 GNB
But if Christ lives in you, the Spirit is life for you because you have been put right with God, even though your bodies are going to die because of sin. Romans 8:10 GNB
But God’s mercy is so abundant, and his love for us is so great, that while we were spiritually dead in our disobedience he brought us to life with Christ. It is by God’s grace that you have been saved. In our union with Christ Jesus he raised us up with him to rule with him in the heavenly world. Ephesians 2:4-6 GNB
So when this takes place, and the mortal has been changed into the immortal, then the scripture will come true: “Death is destroyed; victory is complete!” “Where, Death, is your victory? Where, Death, is your power to hurt?” Death gets its power to hurt from sin, and sin gets its power from the Law. 1 Corinthians 15:54-56 GNB

God is the one who initiated. Jesus was the path to making us alive, and the Holy Spirit is the power to make it all happen. Our sins and trespasses separated us from God. But God pursued us, recreated us, and gave us a new family. We didn’t do a lick of it. The gospel of Jesus Christ, as proclaimed through the Word and the mouths of those who are his, is how God chooses to bring life to the spiritually dead. Read more
