I appreciate any song with a lyric of biblical faithfulness and Christ-centered focus. Here are the words to one of my many favorites I sang frequently as a child, The Solid Rock, written by Edward Mote:
vs.1
My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame, but wholly lean on Jesus' name.
On Christ the solid rock I stand-All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.
vs. 2
When darkness veils His lovely face, I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale, My anchor holds within the veil.
On Christ the solid rock I stand-All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.
vs. 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.
On Christ the solid rock I stand-All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.
vs. 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.
On Christ the solid rock I stand-All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.
