F C
1. My hope is built on noth -ing less
2. When dark-ness veils His love-ly face,
3. His oath, His cove -enant, His blood,
4. When He shall come with trum -pet sound,
F Bb F C F
1. Than Je-sus' blood and right-eous-ness;
2. I rest on His un- chang-ing grace;
3. Sup- port me in the whelm-ing flood;
4. O may I then in Him be found,
F C
1. I dare not trust the sweet -est frame,
2. In ev-'ry high and strom -y gale
3. When all a-round my soul gives way,
4. Dressed in His right-eous-ness a-lone,
F Bb F C F
1. But whol-ly lean on Je -sus' name.
2. My an-chor holds with-in the veil.
3. He then is all my hope and stay.
4. Fault-less to stand be -fore the throne.
