Lyrics

[1]
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.
[chorus]
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 every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil.
[chorus]
On Christ, the solid rock, I stand;
all other ground is sinking sand.
All other ground is sinking sand.
[3]
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.
[chorus]
On Christ, the solid rock, I stand;
all other ground is sinking sand.
All other ground is sinking sand.
[4]
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.
[chorus]
On Christ, the solid rock, I stand;
all other ground is sinking sand.
All other ground is sinking sand.
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.
[chorus]
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 every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil.
[chorus]
On Christ, the solid rock, I stand;
all other ground is sinking sand.
All other ground is sinking sand.
[3]
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.
[chorus]
On Christ, the solid rock, I stand;
all other ground is sinking sand.
All other ground is sinking sand.
[4]
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.
[chorus]
On Christ, the solid rock, I stand;
all other ground is sinking sand.
All other ground is sinking sand.
