ON CHRIST THE SOLID ROCK I STAND (REDUX)
Lyrics by Josh McGary
Original Song by Edward Mote (1834)
[Verse]
E Bsus B
My hope is built on nothing less
A B E Esus
Than Jesus and his righteousness
E B
In him I redefine my pain and
A B E
Identify by Jesus name
[Chorus]
E A
On Christ the solid rock I stand
E Bsus B
All other ground is sinking sand
E B E E/G# A2 E2 E/G# A2 E
All other ground is sinking sand
[Verse]
E Bsus B
When others hide his loving face
A B E Esus
I see him by his truth and grace
E B
Though virtues signal toss and flail
A B E
His anchor holds by cross and nail
[Chorus]
E A
On Christ the solid rock I stand
E Bsus B
All other ground is sinking sand
E B E E/G# A2 E2 E/G# A2 E
All other ground is sinking sand
[Verse]
E Bsus B
His word, his covenant, his blood
A B E Esus
Have woken me through restless floods
E B
I know the truth has just one way
