ROCK OF AGES
Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself
in Thee;
Let the water and the blood, From Thy wounded
side which flowed,
Be of sin the double cure, Save from
wrath and make me pure.
Could my tears forever flow Could my zeal no
anger know,
All for sin could not atone; Thou must save,
and Thou alone.
In my hand no price I bring, Simply
to your cross I'll cling;
While I draw this fleeting breath,When my eyes
shall close in death,
When I rise to worlds unknown, And behold
Thee on Thy throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself
in Thee.
