Lyrics based on the hymn "My Hope Is Built"

Intro

Verse 1

My hope is built on nothing less

Than Jesus' blood and

righteousness.

I dare not trust the

Am/G

sweetest frame,

But wholly

trust in Je

sus' Name.

(Csus) (C)

(To Chorus)

Chorus

(C/E)

Christ a

lone,

Corner

stone;

C/E

Weak made

strong in the

Savior's

love;

Through the

storm,

He is

Lord,

Lord of

all.

Verse 2

When darkness seems to hide His face,

I rest on His un

changing grace.

In ev'ry high and

Am/G

stormy gale,

My anchor

holds within

the veil;

My anchor

holds within

the veil.

Interlude

He is

Lord,

Lord of

all.

Verse 3

When He shall come with trumpet sound,

Oh may I then in

Him be found.

Dressed in His righteous

Am/G

ness alone,

Faultless to

stand before

the throne.
