Our church administrator, Connie, asked me today if I had a favorite hymn. Here it is:
My hope is built on nothing less, than Jesus' blood and righteousness
No merit of my own I claim, But wholly lean on Jesus' name
On Christ the solid rock I stand, 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
On Christ the solid rock I stand, All other ground is sinking sand
His oath, His covenant and blood, Support me in the raging flood
When every earthly prop gives way, He then is all my hope and stay
On Christ the solid rock I stand, All other ground is sinking sand
When He shall come with trumpet sound, Oh, may I then in Him be found
Clothed in His righteousness alone, Redeemed to stand before His throne!
On Christ the solid rock I stand, All other ground is sinking sand.
