Earth’s tickling my feet,
Sensations surround my mind,
Running to escape, I
Keep reaching towards heaven,
Grasping above me,
Looking for a life line,
A hand reaches down,
Lifts me to another level,
Where I stand on solid rock.
Choka
“On Christ, the solid rock, I stand
All other ground is sinking sand…”
from “My Hope Is Built on Nothing Less”, a Christian hymn written by Edward Mote, a pastor at Rehoboth Baptist Church in Horsham, West Sussex. Mote wrote around 100 hymns, this one, which he wrote in 1834, being the best known of his.
