*[Verse 1 — The Mystery of Life]** What is this life no hand can hold? What breath can flesh and bone contain? The wisest minds have searched in vain To find the source of life again. But in the heart made new by grace, One holy truth shines clear and bright: Christ is the life within my soul, My living hope, my heart's delight. **[Chorus — Christ Is My Life]** Christ is my life, my living bread, The risen King, my daily strength. My living water, heaven-sent, My hope through every wilderness. Christ is my life, my heart's true home, My shelter when the storms arise. And when the shadows hide the dawn, Christ is my everlasting light. **[Verse 2 — The Bread of Heaven]** The world may fill its barns with gold, Yet leave the hungriest heart unfed. No earthly treasure makes us whole; We need the living, heavenly Bread. The Rock that follows through the sand, The stream that never shall run dry, The Christ who gave His life for us, Our feast of grace, our full supply. **[Chorus]** Christ is my life, my living bread, The risen King, my daily strength. My living water, heaven-sent, My hope through every wilderness. Christ is my life, my heart's true home, My shelter when the storms arise. And when the shadows hide the dawn, Christ is my everlasting light. **[Verse 3 — The One Window]** When neither sun nor stars appear, When every earthly hope has flown, When winds of sorrow shake my faith, I do not face the night alone. One window opens to the light; One faithful Savior hears my cry. And when the storm consumes the sea, His presence brings me safely by. **[Bridge — All My Springs]** All my springs are found in You! All my hope is held by You! You are the bread my soul receives, The living truth in which I breathe. You are my refuge, You are my song, My strength when nights are cold and long. Jesus, my life, my peace, my stay, Be near me till eternal day! **[Final Chorus — Glorious and Triumphant]** Christ is my life, my living bread, The risen King who conquered death! My living water, heaven-sent, My hope through all eternity! Christ is my life, my heart's true home, My Savior, I am not alone! And when the shadows pass away, I'll see my everlasting Day! **[Outro — Choir, slowly and reverently]** Christ is my life… Christ is my bread… Christ is my light… The risen Lord, forevermore. Amen.
