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.
When darkness seems to hide His 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 is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand.
All other ground is sinking sand.
His oath, His covenant, and 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 is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand.
All other ground is sinking sand.
When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh may I then in Him be found.
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Flawless to stand before His throne.
On Christ the solid rock I stand,
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand.
All other ground is sinking sand.
