Lyrics
Verse 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, All other ground is sinking sand.
Verse 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.
Refrain
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, All other ground is sinking sand.
Verse 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.
Refrain
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, All other ground is sinking sand.
Verse 4
When He shall come with trumpet sound, O may I then in Him be found; Clad in His righteousness alone, Faultless to stand before the throne.
Refrain
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, All other ground is sinking sand.
