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.
Refrain:
On Christ, the solid rock, I stand,
All other ground is sinking sand.
2 When darkness seems to veil his face,
I rest on his unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil.
3 His oath, his covenant and blood,
Support me in the ‘whelming flood;
When all around my soul gives way,
He then is all my hope and stay.
