My hope is set on foundation sound

Not shifting sands nor wind-tossed sea

In Christ’s righteousness I am found

 

My sins are many, my guilt abounds

Salvation is sure, history’s apogee

My hope is set on foundation sound

 

The holy seed, Ancient of Days renowned

By the prophets of yore, foreseen

In Christ’s righteousness I am found

 

The Son of God—who could have known—

Became sin’s curse, nailed to a tree

My hope is set on foundation sound

 

Sacrifice unrivaled, A Father’s love astounds

That His Son became man and died for me

In Christ’s righteousness I am found

 

Conquered death and in exalted glory crowned,

Beloved of God by His holy decree

My hope is set on foundation sound

In Christ’s righteousness I am found
