When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil.
When darkness veils His lovely face,
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.
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.

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.
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.

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.

I was praying for increased hope in Christ and the grace to face all the sufferings and pains of this life, and this song MY HOPE IS BUILT ON NOTHING LESS THAN JESUS CHRIST... was of great help. Let us do good and hope in Christ for the resurrection of the body when the time comes

Amen, Amen to our solid Rock! - What a solid Rock have we.... Nothing can seperate us from our Wonderful and Precious Lord Jesus - even if we are not so faithful, He remains faithful! He then is ALL my hope & stay.

In HIM, my righteousness, alone, Faultless to stand before the throne.

Today is Easter. It seems strange that we will worship isolated in our homes. But, than again, maybe that is an appropriate picture of what sin does--it isolates us--separating us from the God who made us. So many thoughts in my head; some disturbing, some somber, none really on the spectrum of happiness or joy......... it's interesting though--my mind can hear tunes of songs sung many years ago in church. I could hear this in the recesses of my mind. I'm so thankful that when I googled it, I came to this site. He is RISEN--and I know that many around the world would respond with- He is RISEN, indeed.

Christ, the unshakable rock on which I stand. When the storms of life surround us, we shall not be shaken. Halleluia! Glory to the risen Lord!

I woke up this morning with this song on my mind but couldn’t remember all the words. It has touched my heart to hear from believers around my country and around the world. Jesus is the only way. Thank you Lord for shedding your blood for us. Everyone of you know that your fellow Christians are praying for you.
