Than Jesus Christ, my righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus’ name.

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.
When darkness veils His lovely face,

In every high and stormy gale,

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.
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.

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.
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.

Heading out of the country for a couple of weeks, very excited, but feel somuch anxiety leaving my family. My 2 year old granddaughter has a bad cold, fever and nausea. It seems small but of course there are other life concerns as well. Thought this would be a great thought to carry with me on my journey.
I face surgery for cancer tomorrow. I know that my Saviour the Lord Jesus Christ goes before me. I know that He alone is sufficient and exceeds all my needs - for forgiveness, for sanctification, for justification, and indeed for glorification. My Lord I trust You for You have never left me and never forsaken me. I love You and though I am very weak You are so very strong! May You be glorified and honoured in tomorrow's outcome and in all my outcomes to follow.

My hope, grace, greatness, life, testimonies, inheritance, healing, success, sufficiency, wealth etc, is built on nothing else than Jesus Christ the solid rock Amen. Thank You Lord Jesus for making me your daughter. Am lifted and inspired by this hymn.

Oh how good and pleasant it is!
Reading the comments from my brothers and sisters in Christ, whom I’ve yet to meet, about their love of our Saviour and this song is unifying, uplifting and powerful.
Thank you all for your testimony of our Great Hope, Jesus Christ our Lord. ALL other ground is sinking sand!

Ps 18:18 "They prevented (confronted) me in the day of my calamity, But the Lord was my stay"
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

Just came out from my final MBBS exams on community health with so much fear and depression. Then the Holy Spirit brought this song to my heart. I got the complete lyrics here and sang it deeply. Am so lifted right now. Indeed, when you sing hymns, you pray twice. Thank You Jesus for not letting me sink.

In my quiet time this morning, I'm reading of God's grace and unmerited favor. My spirit began trying to sing this song but I struggled with finding the words because it's been a while since I sang it. I looked it up here and then as I sang the lyrics, my spirit SOARED! It's like a super shot of condensed Scripture! Hallelujah!
