Point of Grace performs a modern worship rendition of the classic hymn "Cornerstone," originally by Hillsong Live. The song centers on the unchanging foundation of faith in Jesus Christ, emphasizing that hope rests solely on His sacrifice and righteousness rather than on human effort. It acknowledges life's storms and moments of darkness, yet finds security in God's grace and the anchor of salvation. The lyrics also look forward to Christ's return, expressing a desire to stand faultless before God, clothed in His righteousness. Overall, it is a declaration of trust, strength in weakness, and the lordship of Christ over all.

My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly trust in Jesus name
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly 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
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
Lord of all
When He shall come with trumpet sound
Oh, may I then in Him be found
Dressed in His righteousness alone
Faultless, stand before the throne
Faultless, stand before the throne
Faultless, stand before the throne
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
He is Lord
Lord of all
Lord of all
Through the storm
He is Lord, Lord of all
