Intro/Interludes: F C/E Bb
​
F C
My hope is built on nothing less
Bb
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness.
F C
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
Bb
But wholly lean on Jesus' name.
F C
When darkness veils His lovely face,
Bb
I rest on his unchanging grace.
F C
In every high and stormy gale
Bb
My anchor holds within the veil.
Chorus
F Bb
On Christ the solid rock I stand,
F C
All other ground is sinking sand;
F
All other ground is sinking sand.
​
F C/E
His oath, His covenant, His blood
Bb
Support me in the whelming flood.
F C/E
When all around my soul gives way,
Bb
He then is all my hope and stay.
Chorus
​
F (C)
When He shall call with trumpet sound,
(Bb)
Oh may I then in Him be found.
F (C)
Dressed In His righteousness alone,
(Bb)
Faultless to stand before the throne.
