My Hope is Built on Nothing Less
Edward Mote
    
     D                 A
My   hope is built  on  nothing less
 (D) G   	      A7        D
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
  D               	 A
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
(D)   G                A7        D
But   wholly lean on    Jesus'   name.

                 D                 G
             On Christ, the solid rock, I stand;
	         D            	 Asus     A
	     All other ground is sinking sand,
	        D                A        D
             All other ground is sinking sand.


When darkness seems to veil His face, 
I rest on His unchanging grace;  
In ev'ry high and stormy gale 
my anchor holds within the  veil.

His  oath,   His  covenant, and 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's sound,
O may  I  then  in   Him be  found,
Clothed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before His throne.
