‘Because Of Christ’ Mitch Wong Moving Live Performance - Christian Music Videos

A Grammy Award-winning musician, Mitch Wong, turned in a moving and awe-inspiring rendition of “Because of Christ,” a tune about the love and sacrifice that brings hope and life to all.

No one is perfect. Everyone has failed, stumbled and turned away from God, ignoring his commands and teachings. All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, as the Bible says. God’s Word also states that the penalty for that sin is death.

However, God has made a way because of His tremendous, astounding love, mercy and grace. Yes, all will experience a physical death as our bodies will eventually give out. But because of Christ’s sacrifice on the cross, we don’t have to experience a spiritual death. 

Christ’s death and resurrection won the victory over sin, death and hell. He willingly went to the cross, suffering an agonizing, brutal, and wholly undeserved death on our behalf. He did all that so we might have hope and an opportunity at eternal life with Him. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, Mitch performs “Because of Christ.” It’s a song about exactly what the name indicates. The lyrics point out how Christ made all the difference. How He came willing to give up His life, and because of that ultimate sacrifice and act of love, we have hope. 

The lyrics are beautiful, perfectly capturing the difference He made for mankind.

“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”

What powerful lyrics! 

We could never do anything to be worthy of such a gift. He paid a price, a debt that we could never fulfill. He took our sins on Himself. Because of what He did, we now have hope.

Glory to His name!

Galatians 6:14 “But far be it from me to have glory in anything, but only in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which this world has come to an end on the cross for me, and I for it.”
