My Hope Is Built On Nothing Less
Preview (partial song; no chords displayed)
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,
All other ground is sinking sand.
When darkness seems to veil His face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In ev'ry high and stormy gale
my anchor holds within the veil.
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.
When he shall come with trumpet's sound,
O may I then in Him be found,
Clothed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before His throne.
