My hope is built on nothing less

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.

Indeed on Christ the solid rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand. The last song we sung at the funeral of my best friend Kathleen. She believed and put all her faith in God, and I believe she is with the Lord.

Surely Christ is my solid rock and in Him I shall continue to stand till the end of time. I just remembered those days of my tears and crying before His presence. But today I look back and see that He fullfiled all that I asked for and still doing even more. I know no regrets at all. Indeed, He is my solid rock no matter what situation.
