My Hope Is Built
Edward Mote, 1834
Presentation V1 C V2 C V3 C V4 C

Verse 1
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus's blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus' name.

Chorus
On Christ, the Solid Rock, I stand
all other ground is sinking sand,
all other ground is sinking sand.

Verse 2
When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In ev'ry high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil.

Verse 3
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.

Verse 4
When He shall come with trumpet sound,
O may I then in Him be found,
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne.
