MY HOPE IS BUILT

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 every 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
