11 Hymns for a City Devastated by Water

My Hope is Built on Nothing Less

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.

-Edward Mote, 1834
Tunes: SOLID ROCK, MELITA
