1 My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
no merit of my own I claim,
But wholly lean on Jesus' name.
Refrain:
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
all other ground is sinking sand.
2 When darkness veils his lovely face,
I rest on his unchanging grace;
In ev'ry high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil. (Refrain)
3 His oath, his covenant, his blood
Sustain me in the raging flood;
When all supports are washed away,
He then is all my hope and stay. (Refrain)
4 When he shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh may I then in him be found;
clothed in his righteousness alone,
redeemed to stand before the throne. (Refrain)
