|  | 1. | 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. | 
|  |  | On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; | 
|  |  | All other ground is sinking sand, | 
|  |  | All other ground is sinking sand. | 
|  | 2. | When darkness veils His lovely face, | 
|  |  | I rest on His unchanging grace; | 
|  |  | In every high and stormy gale, | 
|  |  | My anchor holds within the veil. | 
|  | 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. | 
|  | 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. |
