<P> Desperation Band released a similarly - titled song "Solid Rock" on their 2009 album Light Up the World . But the track is a completely different song (both in lyrics and in music) using the expression "On Christ this solid rock I stand / All other ground is sinking sand" in a musical bridge (or breakstrain). </P> <P> 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 melody . </P> <P> An alternative tune sometimes used for "My Hope Is Built on Nothing Less" is MELITA, composed by John B. Dykes . The advantage of MELITA for "My Hope Is Built on Nothing Less" is that MELITA automatically emphasizes the word rock (which is central to the lyrics) by dedicating one and one - half beats to that word (where in SOLID ROCK it has merely an eighth note). A disadvantage of MELITA is that the tune is inextricably identified with the hymn "Eternal Father, Strong to Save" (commonly recognized in the United States as the "Navy Hymn"). </P>

Who sang my hope is built on nothing less
