The translation of songs and poetry is not only difficult at times, it's virtually impossible to maintain rhyme schemes in the language into which you translate. Therefore, you basically have two options: Change the song in favor of maintaining rhyme schemes. Or, translate the lyrics, and forget about rhyme schemes. Everyone has their preference. Below, you may watch the video in which the song, In Christ Alone is sung in German. We have also provided you with the English translation of In Christus (Ist Mein Ganzer Halt), so you understand the German lyrics that are not an exact translation of the version/s of In Christ Alone you might find out there. Our English translation of the German lyrics is not a professional one, mind you. Therefore, feel free to share your comments and suggestions. If you are a student of the German or English language, and are Christian, you might find it helpful to worship in whichever one you are learning. It's a natural and more relaxed way of learning when you're not in the mood to study grammar or vocabulary. And, you're doing two things at once: practicing your German or your English, and worshiping the Lord Jesus.

In Christ (Is The Fullness of My Strength)

The fullness of my strength is in Christ. He is my light, my salvation, my song, corner stone and solid ground, anchor in the storm and wind. Who loves like He does? (Who) calms my fears? (Who) gives me peace in the midst of the battle? He is my consolation in every sorrow. I find support in His love.

The eternal Word was born a man. God revealed in a child. The Lord of the world, laughed at, mocked, and rejected by His own. But there on the cross, where Jesus died, and God's wrath came to an end, He bore the guilt of the whole world. I am healed by His stripes.

They laid Him in a cold grave. Darkness engulfed the light of the world. But early in the morning on the third day, the night was illuminated by the light. Death conquered. The tomb is empty. The curse of sin is no more, for I am His, and He is mine. He purifies me with His blood.

Now death has lost power. Through Christ I have been born again. My life is in His hands from the first breath. And no power in this world can steal me from Him. He's holding me till the end, when He'll appear in glory.

And no power in this world can steal me from Him. He's holding me till the end, when He'll appear in glory.
