My Hope Is Built on Nothing Less

"My Hope Is Built on Nothing Less" is a Christian hymn written by Edward Mote, a pastor at Rehoboth Baptist Church in Horsham, West Sussex.

The refrain of "My Hope Is Built on Nothing Less" refers to the Parable of the Wise and the Foolish Builders and builds around the metaphor of Christ as a rock with a firm basis in scripture.

On Christ the Solid Rock I stand All other ground is sinking sand"My Hope Is Built on Nothing Less" is part of the gospel hymns genre.

In the final stanza, Mote brings his hymn full circle with the ultimate realization of God's grace.

Hillsong Music released in 2012 a worship song as the title track to Cornerstone, which uses the lyrics of "My Hope Is Built on Nothing Less" but with a different refrain and a different but similar melody.
