My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus Christ, my righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus’ name.
Than Jesus Christ, my 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.
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.
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil.

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.
Support me in the whelming flood;
When all around my soul gives way,
He then is all my hope and stay.
4
When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found;
In Him, my righteousness, alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne.
Oh, may I then in Him be found;
In Him, my righteousness, alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne.

There is no other secure place to stand, but on the solid Rock of CHRIST Jesus. In HIM there is hope, joy, peace, comfort and salvation. I am grateful for one who penned these words to encourage the heart and spirit of the Believers. Thank you for sharing this timeless classic. GOD bless!!

The hymn that I have sung in church since I was a child has been running through my mind lately in this uncertain time of the corona virus and climate change. I needed to hear this melody to bring me back to Christ my Rock.

I am always encouraged by this hymn, MY HOPE IS BUILT ON NOTHING LESS THAN JESUS CHRIST. Each time I remember the situation of things in the world especially this pandemic era, it says "when darkness veils His lovely face, I rest on his unchanging grace..."
I appreciate the author for the inspiration!

Today as I was reading about Papa Gods love in 1John 3:1-3 "that we shall be like Him when He is revealed and everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself just as He is pure" I started hearing this song about my hope resting on nothing else - The Rock on which I stand.
