THE SOLID ROCK L.M.Ref.
FAITH AND TRUST
On Christ the solid rock I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness.
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly leand on Jesus' name.
When Darkness seems to veils His face,
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.
When He shall come with trumpet sound,
O may I then in Him be found!
Clad in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne.

My hope is built on nothing less
than Jesus' blood and righteousness.
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
but wholly leand on Jesus' name.

Refrain
On Christ the solid rock I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.

When darkness seems to veils His face,
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.

When He shall come with trumpet sound,
O may I then in Him be found!
Clad in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne.
