The Solid Rock
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
I cannot 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.
Grew up singing that song. Love it. Thanks.
My pleasure. Though as you can see from recent activity it wouldn't matter to some if Augustine and other like-minded early interpreters of Scripture all rose from the dead and started posting here 24/7 that Christ is the Rock. The narrative must survive the onslaught of reality no matter what the cost. Truly amazing.
And that hymn was one of my mother's favorites. I know it well, and sing it with relish, such as my voice is. :(
And somewhere back in the family tree I have a circuit riding Methodist preacher. Hard days, but good times.
Peace,
SR
