Text: | The Solid Rock |
Author: | Edward Mote |
Tune: | SOLID ROCK |
Composer: | William B. Bradbury |
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.
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. [Refrain]
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. [Refrain]
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. [Refrain]
