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.
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.
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 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.

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.

My son committed suicide a few days ago leaving a son and wife. Our grief and burdens seem overwhelming at moments. Darkness truly veils His lovely face. If I did not have the anchor that holds within the veil despair might take me. Christ Jesus is everything now. There is no other hope. All other ground is sinking sand. Come Lord Jesus.

I just think of the oath he took to save the intire world with the new covenant in His Blood. This is amazing for this purpose he came that he may distroy the works of the devy

Truly my hope is built on nothing less than Jesus Christ. He is my righteousness, My hope of eternal life and my hope of glory is based on faith in Jesus Christ. It seems the age is getting darker and darker. These days when many things we trust in are failing, we can trust in Him our solid rock. He is something solid that we can trust in. We stand in faith in His accomplishments and promises. It’s nothing we do, thank goodness.

This beautiful song soars the sweet faith of Jesus, singing His truth: "Jesus loves me, this I know, for the bible tells me so."
For me, everything else is incomparably less.
