  1. 1My hope is built on nothing less
  2. Than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
  3. No merit of my own I claim,
  4. But wholly lean on Jesus' name.
  5. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
  6. All other ground is sinking sand.
  7. 2When darkness veils His lovely face
  8. I rest on His unchanging grace;
  9. In ev'ry high and stormy gale,
  10. My anchor holds within the veil.
  11. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
  12. All other ground is sinking sand.
  13. 3His oath, His covenant and blood,
  14. Support me in the raging flood;
  15. When ev'ry earthly prop gives way,
  16. He then is all my hope and stay.
  17. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
  18. All other ground is sinking sand.
  19. 4When judgment's trump at last shall sound,
  20. O may I then in Him be found;
  21. Dressed in His righteousness alone,
  22. I faultless stand before the throne.
  23. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
  24. All other ground is sinking sand.
  25. 5Amen.
