My hope is built on nothing less
213
8.8.8.8.8.8.
1 My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness.
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly trust in Jesus’ Name.
On Christ the solid Rock I stand,
All other ground is sinking sand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
2 When darkness seems to hide His face,
I rest on His unchanging grace.
In ev’ry 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.
4 And when I hear the trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found.
Clothed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before His throne.
E. Monte
