"My Hope is Built on Nothing Less"by Edward Mote, 1797-1874
My hope is built on nothing lessThan 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.
When darkness veils His lovely face,I rest on His unchanging grace;In every high and stormy galeMy anchor holds within the veil.On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;All other ground is sinking sand.
His oath, His covenant, and bloodSupport me in the whelming 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.
When He shall come with trumpet sound,Oh, may I then in Him be found,Clothed in His righteousness alone,Faultless to stand before the throne!On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;All other ground is sinking sand.
