My Hope is Built on Nothing less
Edward Mote (1834)
F F/C C
My hope is built on nothing less
F7 Bb F/C C F
than Jesus’ blood and righteousness
F/C C
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
F7 Bb C F
but wholly lean on Jesus’ name
Chorus
Bb
On Christ the solid Rock, I stand
F C
All other ground is sinking sand,
F/A Bb F C7 F F/A Bb F/A Gm7 C
all other ground is sinking sand
F F/C C
When darkness seems to veil His face,
F7 Bb F/C C F
I rest on His unchanging grace
F/C C
In every high and stormy gale,
F7 Bb C F
my anchor holds within the veil
F F/C C
His oath, His covenant, and blood,
F7 Bb F/C C F
support me in the whelming flood
F/C C
When all around my soul gives way,
F7 Bb C F
He then is all my hope and stay
F F/C C
When He shall come with trumpet sound,
F7 Bb F/C C F
O may I then in Him be found
F/C C
Clad in His righteousness alone,
F7 Bb C F
faultless to stand before the throne
