My (Eternal) Hope

My hope

My hope is built on nothing lessThan Jesus' blood and righteousnessI dare not trust the sweetest frameBut wholly lean on Jesus' name
On Christ the solid rock I standAll other ground is sinking sandAll other ground is sinking sand
When darkness
When darkness veils His lovely faceI'll rest on His unchanging graceIn every high and stormy dayMy anchor holds within the veil
On Christ the solid rock I standAll other ground is sinking sandAll other ground is sinking sand
And His oath
His oath, His covenant, His bloodSupport me in the whelming floodWhen all around my soul gives wayHe then is all my hope and stay
On Christ the solid rock I standAll other ground is sinking sandAll other ground is sinking sand
Let's just revisit and visualize itJust think about what that is gonna look likeWhen we hear that trumpet sound
When He shall come
When He shall come with trumpet soundOh, may I then in Him be foundDressed in His righteousness aloneFaultless to stand before the throne
On Christ the solid rock I standAll other ground is sinking sandAll other ground is sinking sand
