  • "What is your only comfort in life and in death?” For centuries, believers have learned the Christian faith beginning with this first question of the Heidelberg Catechism. Hope comes only in trusting the one who died to take the curse of death and who crushed the power of death by his resurrection. The Christian can sing hallelujah, because Christ assures us of our glorious future.
    In this behind-the-scenes video, the Getty Music writing team of Keith Getty, Matt Papa, Matt Boswell, Matt Merker and Jordan Kauflin, reflect on why it’s crucial for believers to sing of the resurrection and how these truths can give us hope in the darkest of storms. Sickness, fear, and suffering afflict us all. Yet our hope remains as certain as the empty tomb. Even in the darkness, we can sing, “Hallelujah.” Now and ever, we confess: Christ our hope in life and death.

    Great Stuff. A balm for so many. A Joy of love, and I feel that it will bring Joy in heaven as many repent.

    The Heidelberg catechism is something we can learn from bringing us back to hope that that is Christ alone. We use it in our churches here in Australia.. thank you . What an awesome God we serve...Hallelujah..

    After losing a baby to early miscarriage and then our third son being stillborn due to serious abnormalities this song is exactly what I need. It is my new anthem.
    The whole world needs to know the reason for our hope, especially now. Christ alone, Christ alone.

      Thank you for this testimony, Naomi.
      May our risen Saviour continue to uphold, strengthen and encourage you in these difficult days.
      And may He do the same for other believers through you, as you press ahead in His grace.
      In glory we will know the reasons.
      Until then we know our Saviour.
      And He makes all the difference.
      God bless you dear sister, and all your loved ones.

      Truly blessed by your testimony and the strength God has given you. Indeed believers can stand firm in the strength and might of Christ who is sovereign in the lives of His people. The world is full of uncertainties, but God through His Son gives saved-sinners so much hope that though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed yet His love is eternal. May our heart's desire is to worship and praise Him no matter what.

    So blessed to watch this "behind the song". We have been singing this song around the house too. We lost our aunt earlier this month. And this song brought so much comfort to us. My oldest (7 years old) have been troubled with thoughts of death as well. And we sing this song together. What a blessing when a song is founded upon the deep truths of God's word!

    I find that these modern hymns teach me so much about my faith as setting words and thoughts to music give it even more to stick to in my mind! So thankful for this song as I find myself singing it very often lately and reminding myself of the great truth.

    Such a beautiful song of hope and truth! I had the privilege of singing this in Kenya when I went to church with my kids who serve there. It was glorious to hear that group of voices rise that Christ is our hope in a place where it can be hard to find on the surface. Thanks for this beautiful song.

    Congratulations. The Lord has blessed you with a far reaching praise ministry around the world of You Tube and beyond. We will pray for you.
    WE LOVE YOU, LORD! YOU GAVE ALL FOR US. YOUR SUFFERING WAS IMMENSE! WE GIVE YOU ALL THE GLORY! YOU ARE OUR LIFE SAVIOR. YOU KEEP YOUR WORD IN THE BIBLE.
    GOD'S BLESSINGS TO ALL NATIONS AND PEOPLES
    Gospel! The good news about Jesus Christ and salvation from judgment on our sins. Jesus dined with His disciples; Mark 14:22-25, the night before He went to the cross.
    Jesus and His disciples were eating a Passover meal together at the Last Supper. After partaking of bread and wine (His body and His blood) , the Bible mentions the hymn Jesus sang with His disciples. “And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives” Mark 14:26. What were they singing on such an occasion? PRAISE! Psalms 113-118.
    THE GOOD NEWS
    "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father, but by me.."John 14.6
    Blood coming from his body, NAKED, hanging on that cross like Roman torture weapon! What a Lord God and Savior! He had to. HE is God the Son. Only His sinless blood could pay our sins price.1 John 2:1-2. The Savior was born to die for our sins so we could live through Him. I Subscribed.
    God knew your faithful praise ministry before the world was made! Ephesians 1:1-14. Prayer goes out for you and those here. A Crown in Heaven awaits all who share the Gospel of Jesus Christ that saves a soul. ( see"JESUS SAVES") 1 Thessalonians 2:19-20; Philippians 4:1. The Apostle Paul said in Romans 1:16 "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believes; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek".
    This praise resounds throughout the earth: "Jesus Christ is Lord and God. Only He saves". He testified: ''I and my Father are One" John 10:30
    2 Samuel chapter 22:verse 50 "Therefore I will praise you, O Lord, out of the countries, and I will praise your name."
    JESUS SAVES
    God the Son (Jesus Christ) has given us the gospel to share with the world. Mark 16:15: "And He said unto them, Go into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature."
    How can we hear it? Scripture tells us. Romans 10:17 "Then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." (We receive the "word" in many ways. The "Word" is Jesus Christ!); John 1:1-5. God the Holy Spirit teaches through the Word of God in the Bible. The word of God is the sword of God the Holy Spirit in us. This is our weapon from God. Ephesians 6:10-18.
    The Birth of Jesus Christ
    Isaiah 7: 14: "Therefore the LORD shall give you a sign; behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and call His name Immanuel." Hebrew: עִמָּנוּאֵל, "God with us" in human flesh but without sin. The Savior of the world was born to die for our sins! He did so 33 years later. His terrible ordeal; body mutilated; blood poured out, finally died (John 19:30; Luke 23:46 ) and was placed in a tomb and rose from the dead the 3rd day ! "HE IS RISEN" Matthew 28: 6.
    Isaiah 53:" 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all." - IT IS FOUNDED UPON GOD'S LOVE FOR MAN AND WOMAN HE CREATED
    John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
    "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." Romans 3: 23
    " For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23
    "1 Corinthians 15: 3 "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:"
    THE PAYMENT BY HIS BLOOD FOR ALL SINS EVER!
    Romans 5:8 " But God demonstrates his love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, now justified by his blood, we will be saved from wrath through him."
    “For he (God) hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” 2 Corinthians 5:21.
    " In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;." Ephesians 1:7; 1 Peter 1:18-19.
    Matthew 26: 28 "For this is my blood of the New Testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins." (the life is in the blood. He had to pay with His life)
    "And according to the Law, one may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness." Hebrews 9:22
    BY GOD'S GRACE ALONE THROUGH FAITH ALONE IN JESUS CHRIST ARE WE SAVED
    Ephesians 2:8 "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 not of works, lest any man should boast."
    Jesus died and paid the penalty for our sins to rescue us from eternal death. He died on our behalf. We believe in Him, trusting His death and shedding of His blood as payment for ALL our sins and His burial and resurrection from the dead the third day! John 20:24-31; 1 Corinthians 15: 3-4 above.
    WHOSOEVER BELIEVES SHALL TESTIFY TO THE TRUTH
    Romans 10:
    9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
    13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
    TO DIE IS TO REJECT SALVATION IN JESUS CHRIST AND BE SEPARATE FROM GOD FOREVERMORE
    Salvation and forgiveness of sins is the blessing of anyone who believes in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. We receive the baptism of God the Holy Spirit immediately which seals us in Christ and that is permanent! Ephesians 1:13-14. Those who reject the free gift of salvation, see John 3:16 above, "perish", which means their sins are judged by God the Son and they suffer eternal separation from God and the family of God forever called the "second death". Revelation 21:8
