The Solid Rock
(Isaiah 44:6-23)

<verse 1>
D                   A
My hope is built on nothing less
     G                A        D
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
  D                  A
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
    G              A      D
But wholly lean on Jesus' Name

<chorus>
   D                G
On Christ the Solid Rock I stand;
    D               G       A
All other ground is sinking sand.
    G               A       D
All other ground is sinking sand.

<verse 2>
When darkness veils His lovely face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In ev'ry high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the vale.

(chorus)

<verse 3>
His oath, His covenant, His blood
Support me in the whelming flood;
When all around my soul gives way
He then is all my hope and stay

(chorus)

<verse 4>
When He shall come with trumpet sound,
O may I then in Him be found;
Dressed in HIs righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne.

(chorus 2x)
