Kutless performs a modern worship rendition of the classic hymn "Cornerstone," originally written by Edward Mote. The song declares that the believer's hope is built solely on Jesus and His sacrifice, not on human efforts or circumstances. It emphasizes Christ as the firm foundation, the source of strength in weakness, and the anchor through life's storms. The lyrics affirm His lordship over all, offering comfort and assurance even when God seems hidden. The song encourages trust in God's unchanging grace and highlights the security found in Christ alone.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But holy trust in Jesus' name
Christ alone, cornerstone
Weak made strong
In the savior's love
Through the storm
He is Lord
Lord of all
When darkness seems to hide his face
I rest on his unchanging grace
In every high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil
Christ alone, cornerstone
Weak made strong
In the savior's love
Through the storm
He is Lord
Lord of all
He is Lord
Lord of all
Christ alone, cornerstone
Weak made strong
In the savior's love
Through the storm
He is Lord
Lord of all
Lord of all
Christ alone, he is Lord
Lord of all
