My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesu’s blood-God’s righteousness:
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesu’s Name!

Refrain
On Christ, the solid Rock I stand:
All other ground is sinking sand!
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand:
All other ground is sinking sand!

When darkness seems to vail His face,
I rest on His unchanging grace:
In ev’ry high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the vail!

Eternally His promise stands,
My name is graven on His hands!
When all around my soul gives way,
He still abides, my Hope and Stay!
