On Christ the solid rock I stand

Appears in 1,104 hymnals First Line: My hope is built on nothing less 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. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand, All other ground is sinking sand. 2 His oath, His covenant, and blood, Support me in the sinking flood; When every earthly prop gives way, He then is all my hope and stay. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand, All other ground is sinking sand. 3 When I shall launch to worlds unseen, Oh, may I then be found in Him, Dressed in His righteousness alone, Faultless to stand before the throne. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand, All other ground is sinking sand.

Lord Jesus, Thou art truly good!

Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus, Thou art truly good! Thou spread'st for our salvation Thy body and Thy blood as food, And giv'st us invitation; As weary souls, with sin oppressed, We come to Thee for needed rest, For counsel and forgiveness. 2 Thou say'st: "This is my body; eat, And orally receive Me! This is My blood; drink all of it, And henceforth never leave Me!" Thou art almighty, and with Thee Impossible is nothing. 3 Although my reason cannot see How in so many places Thy body at a time may be, Yet faith Thy Word embraces. How it can be I leave to Thee, Thy Word alone sufficeth me; For Thou wilt that we trust it. 4 Lord, I believe in simple trust, Strength in my weakness give me, For I am nought but sinful dust, Nor of Thy Word bereave me! Thy Baptism, Supper, and Thy Word, My consolation are, O Lord, For they contain my treasure. 5 Grant that we worthily receive Thy Supper, Lord, our Savior, That for our sins we truly grieve, And prove by our behavior That we obtained Thy saving grace, And trust in it throughout our days; Then will our life be godly. 6 For Thy consoling Supper, Lord, Be praised throughout all ages! Preserve it, for with one accord The world against it rages. Grant that Thy body and Thy blood May be my comfort and sweet food In my last moments. Amen.
