21. ON Christ salvation rests secure;

21. ON Christ salvation rests secure; ON Christ salvation rests secure; The Rock of Ages must endure; Nor can that faith be overthrown Which rests upon the ``Living Stone.’ No other hope shall intervene; To Him we look, on Him we lean;

Other foundations we disown, And build on Christ, the ``Living Stone.’ In Him it is ordained to raise A temple to Jehovah’s praise, Composed of all His saints, who own No Saviour but the ``Living Stone.’

View the vast building, see it rise; The work, how great! the plan, how wise!

O wondrous fabric! power unknown, That rests it on the ``Living Stone.’ But most adore His precious Name; His glory and His grace proclaim; For us, the lost, condemned, undone, He gave Himself, the ``Living Stone.’
