The Solid Rock
Words by Edward Mote (1834)
Music by William B. Bradbury (1863)
Arranged by Paxson Jeancake

My hope is built on nothing less,
Than Jesus' blood and 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.

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.

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.

(chorus)
