Text: | The Solid Rock |
Author: | Edward Mote, 1797-1874 |
Tune: | SOLID ROCK |
Composer: | William B. Bradbury, 1816-1868 |
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.
Refrain:
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand-
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.
2 When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In ev'ry high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil. [Refrain]
3 His oath, His covenant, His blood
Support me in o'erwhelming floods;
When all around my soul gives way,
He then is all my hope and stay. [Refrain]
4 When He shall come with trumpet sound,
O may I then in Him be found,
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne. [Refrain]
