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 veils His lovely face, 

I rest on His unchanging grace;

In every high and stormy gale,

My anchor holds within the veil.

On Christ the solid Rock I stand,

All other ground is sinking sand,

All other ground is sinking sand.

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.

On Christ the solid Rock I stand,

All other ground is sinking sand,

All other ground is sinking sand.

When He shall come with trumpet sound, 

Oh, may I then in Him be found;

Dressed in His righteousness alone, 

Faultless to stand before the throne.

On Christ the solid Rock I stand,

All other ground is sinking sand,

All other ground is sinking sand.
