For I am His and He is mine  
G               C        D        G  
Bought with the precious blood of Christ

No power of hell, no scheme of man  
A   D              A       E 
Can ever pluck me from His hand  
D          A     D          E 
‘til He returns or calls me home  
A           D         E          A 
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand
