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.
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.
Oh, may I then in Him be found;
In Him, my righteousness, alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne.

It dosn't matter how often I sing the hymn, or hear it sung, the words bring me to my knees in worship and full surrender to the Authority of God. Such a beautiful story of salvation, and a wake up call that says, I am nothing without His Grace!! Indeed, All other groung is sinking sand.

This is a grace song through and through! If you sing it and still feel condemned, sing it meditatively until you realize who Christ has made you as a believer! It’s such a blessing!

This old hymn came to mind today. Reading 1 Pater 1:3 when we look at the state of this world we are reminded that we have a living hope in the resurrection of Christ Jesus. Wow what an awesome God we serve. Praise your name Jesus. On Christ the solid rock I stand. All other ground truly is sinking sand.
