Words
My hope is built on nothing less Than Jesus' blood and righteousness I dare not trust the sweetest frame But wholly lean on Jesus' name On Christ the solid Rock I stand All other ground in sinking sand When darkness veils His lovely face I rest on His unchanging grace In every high and stormy gale My anchor holds within the veil On Christ the solid Rock I stand All other ground in sinking sand His oath, His covenant, His blood Support me in the whelming flood When all around my soul gives way He then is all my hope and stay On Christ the solid Rock I stand All other ground in sinking sand When He shall come with trumpet sound O may I then in Him be found Dressed in His righteousness alone Faultless to stand before the throne On Christ the solid Rock I stand All other ground in sinking sand
