On Christ The Solid Rock

Verse 1

Edward Mote

            E            B
My hope is built on nothing less
            A            B            E
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
    E            B
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
            A            B            E
But wholly lean on Jesus' name


            E            A
On Christ the solid rock I stand
      E            B
All other ground is sinking sand
            E            B            E            E - E/G# - A
All other ground is sinking sand


            E            B
When darkness seems to hide his face
        A            B            E
I rest on His unchanging grace
     E            B
In every high and stormy gale
            A            B            E
My anchor holds within the veil


            E            B
His oath, His covenant His blood,
            A            B            E
Support me in the whelming flood
            E            B
When all around my soul gives way,
            A            B            E
He then is all my hope and stay

            E            B
When He shall come with trumpet sound
            A            B            E
Oh may I then in Him be found
      E            B
Dressed in His righteousness alone
            A            B            E
Faultless to stand before the throne

            E            A
On Christ the solid rock I stand
      E            B
All other ground is sinking sand
            E            B            E            E - E/G# - A
All other ground is sinking sand
