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 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 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 When He shall come with trumpet sound, oh 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 On Christ the solid rock I stand; All other ground is sinking sand All other ground is sinking sand

And can it be that I should gain an interest in the Savior’s blood? Died He for me, who caused His pain—For me, who Him to death pursued? He left His Father’s throne above; so free, so infinite His grace— Emptied Himself of all but love, and bled for Adam’s helpless race: Amazing love! How can it be—That Thou, my God, should die for me ’Tis mercy all, immense and free, For O my God, it rescued me—It rescued me Long I, in prison, confined lay, fast bound in sin and nature’s sway; My chains fell off, Thou set me free, I rose, went forth, and followed Thee. No condemnation now I dread; Jesus, and all in Him, is mine; Alive in Him, my living Head, clothed in His righteousness divine, Amazing love! My sin erased! Bold, I approach the throne of grace! Amazing love! My sin erased! Bold, I approach the throne of grace! The throne of grace! Long I, in prison, confined lay, fast bound in sin and nature’s sway; My chains fell off, Thou set me free, I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.

Before Thy throne, O God, we bow and kneel; Give us a conscience ever quick to feel, Give us a ready mind to understand; The fullest measure of Thy tender hand Be still, my soul, and patient wait; Our Savior stands with power great From sin and death to be set free; Bring us, O Jesus—bring us nearer Thee. From sins that scheme to make the heart grow cold, From love of pleasure, from the lust for gold, Renew our hearts, Oh Lord, and make them true; Incline them ever, God, to worship you; Be still, my soul, and patient wait; Our Savior stands with power great From sin and death to be set free; Bring us, O Jesus—bring us nearer Thee. Be still, my soul: the hour is hastening on; When disappointment, grief and fear are gone, When we shall be forever with the Lord; Sorrow forgot, love’s purest joys restored. Be still, my soul, and patient wait; Our Savior stands with power great From sin and death to be set free; Bring us, O Jesus—bring us nearer Thee.

The love of God is greater far than tongue or pen could ever tell; It goes beyond the highest star, and reaches to the lowest hell; The guilty pair, bowed down—with care, God gave His Son to win; His erring child He reconciled, and pardoned from all sin. O love of God, how rich and pure—how measureless and strong! It shall forevermore endure, the saints’ and angels’ song. When years of time shall pass away, And earthly thrones and kingdoms fall, When those—who now refuse to pray— Will then on hills and mountains call, God’s love so sure, shall still endure, All measureless and strong; Redeeming grace to Adam’s race— The saints’ and angels’ song. Could we with ink the ocean fill, and were the skies of parchment made, Were every stalk on earth a quill, and everyone a scribe by trade, To write the love of God above, would drain the ocean dry. Nor could the scroll contain the whole, though stretched from sky to sky. O love of God, how rich and pure—how measureless and strong! It shall forevermore endure, the saints’ and angels’ song. O love of God, how rich and pure—how measureless and strong! It shall forevermore endure, the saints’ and angels’ song.

Love Divine 04:02
Love divine, all loves excelling; Joy of heav’n—of God—to earth come down; Fix in us Thy humble dwelling; All Thy faithful promised mercies crown! Oh, oh… Jesus, Thou art all compassion; Pure and faultless, endless love Thou art; Visit us now with Thy salvation; Enter every trembling, broken heart. Oh, Oh Heal our hearts Take away our bent to sinning; Be our Alpha—our Omega be; End of faith, as its Beginning, freed—from sin to liberty Come, Almighty to deliver; Let us all Thy perfect life receive; Suddenly return and never, Never more Thy chosen temples leave. Oh, oh Thee we would be always blessing, Serve Thee as Thy angels serve above, Pray and praise Thee without ceasing, We will Glory in Thy perfect love. Oh, Oh Hear our prayer Finish, then, Thy new creation; Pure and spotless let your people be Let us see Thy great salvation, perfectly restored in Thee; Make us new; Make us new Changed from glory into glory, New Creation—then we take our place, Till we cast our crowns before Thee, lost in wonder, love, and praise.

Hark! the voice of love and mercy, sounds aloud from Calvary; See, it rends the rocks asunder, shakes the earth, and veils the sky: “It is finished!” O what comfort do these precious words afford; Heav’nly blessings, without measure, flow to us from Christ the Lord: “It is finished!” “It is finished!” Glory to the bleeding Lamb! Finished—all the types and shadows; Finished—too the curse of law Finished—all that God had promised! Death is dead and Christ shall awe: “It is finished!” “It is finished!” Glory to the bleeding Lamb! “It is finished!” “It is finished!” Glory to the bleeding Lamb! Tune your harps anew, ye seraphs, join to sing the glorious theme; All in earth, and all in heaven, join to praise Emmanuel’s Name; “It is finished!” “It is finished!” Glory to the bleeding Lamb! Alleluia! Alleluia! Glory to the risen Lamb! Alleluia! Alleluia! Glory to the risen Lamb! Glory to the risen Lamb!

His be the Victor's name, who fought the fight alone; Resplendent saints no honor claim, His triumph was their own. Trod sin and death beneath His feet, as he was trodden down. Through weakness and defeat He won the conquerors crown; Oh, love incomprehensible, made Thee bleed for me! The judge of all has suffered death to set the prisoner free. He laid the power of Satan low; By light, the dark overthrew; Bowed to the grave—destroyed it so; And death, by dying, He slew. Oh, love incomprehensible, made Thee bleed for me! The judge of all has suffered death to set the prisoner free. Bless, bless the Conqueror slain—Slain in His victory— Who lived, who died, who lives again in glorious majesty. Who lived, who died, who lives again in glorious majesty. Who lived, who died, who lives again in glorious majesty. Oh, love incomprehensible, made Thee bleed for me! The judge of all has suffered death to set the prisoner free. Oh, love incomprehensible, made Thee bleed for me! The judge of all has suffered death to set the prisoner free.

I need Thee every hour, most gracious Lord; No tender voice like Thine can peace afford. I need Thee every hour, stay Thou nearby; Temptations lose their power when Thou art nigh. I need Thee, O I need Thee; Every hour I need Thee; O bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee. I need Thee every hour, in joy or pain; Come quickly and abide, or life is vain. I need Thee, O I need Thee; Every hour I need Thee; O bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee. I need Thee, O I need Thee; Every hour I need Thee; O bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee. I need Thee, O I need Thee; Every hour I need Thee; O bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee. I need Thee every hour, most Holy One; O make me Thine indeed, Thou blessed Son.

Dear Refuge 04:27
Dear refuge of my weary soul, on Thee when sorrows rise; On thee, when waves of trouble roll, my fainting hope relies. And, though—when gloomy doubts prevail—I fear to call thee mine; The springs of comfort seem to fail and all my hopes decline. To thee I tell each rising grief, for Thou alone can heal; Thy word dost bring a sweet relief, for every pain I feel. Thy word dost bring a sweet relief, for every pain I feel. Gracious God, why would I flee? Words of life come forth from thee Grace in hand, Thine only Son, Lifts my head and bids me come Hast Thou not bid me seek Thy face? And shall I seek in vain? And can the ear of sovereign grace be deaf when I complain? No, still the ear of sovereign grace attends the mourner's prayer; O may I ever find access, to breathe my sorrows there. O may I ever find access, to breathe my sorrows there. Gracious God, why would I flee? Words of life come forth from thee Grace in hand, Thine only Son, Lifts my head and bids me come Gracious God, why would I flee? Words of life come forth from thee Grace in hand, Thine only Son, Lifts my head and bids me come

Not what my hands have done can save my guilty soul; Not what my toiling body works can make my spirit whole. Not what I feel or what I do can give me peace with God; Not all my prayers nor cries nor tears can bear this heavy load. Thy work alone, O precious Christ, can ease this weight of sin; Thy blood alone, O Lamb of God, can give me peace within. Thy love alone, O Father God, is what my spirit needs Now rid me of this dark unrest, and set this captive free Your voice alone, O Lord, can speak to me of grace; Your power alone, O Lord, does all my sin erase. No other work but Yours, no other blood will do; No other strength but Your great power can bear me safely through. Each thought of hate and fear and doubt, each lingering shade of gloom— His cross dispels—my unbelief is buried in His tomb I bless the Christ of God; Oh, I rest on love divine; And with unfaltering lip and heart I call this Savior mine. Your voice alone, O Lord, can speak to me of grace; Your power alone, O Lord, does all my sin erase. No other work but Yours, no other blood will do; No other strength but Your great power can bear me safely through. I praise the God of grace; Oh I trust His truth and might; He calls me His, I call Him mine, My God, my joy, my light. ’Tis He who saves my life, and freely pardon gives; I love because He first loved me, I live because He lives. Your voice alone, O Lord, can speak to me of grace; Your power alone, O Lord, does all my sin erase. No other work but Yours, no other blood will do; No other strength but Your great power can bear me safely through. Your voice alone, O Lord, can speak to me of grace; Your power alone, O Lord, does all my sin erase. No other work but Yours, no other blood will do; No other strength but Your great power can bear me safely through. No other strength but Your great power can bear me safely through.
