The Solid Rock (My Hope Is Built) (Edward Mote)

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 is sinking sand.
On Christ the Solid Rock I stand.

 

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.
On Christ the Solid Rock I stand.

 

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 is sinking sand.
On Christ the Solid Rock I stand.

 

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 is sinking sand.
On Christ the Solid Rock I stand.
