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.

 

Not the labor of my hands, 

Can fulfill the law’s demands

Could my zeal no resting know, 

Could my tears forever flow

All for sin could not atone; 

Thou must save, and Thou alone.

 

Nothing in my hand I bring, 

Simply to the cross I cling

Naked, come to Thee for dress; 

Helpless look to Thee for grace

Foul, I to the fountain fly; 

Wash me, Savior, or I die. 

 

While I draw this fleeting breath, 

When mine eyes shall close in death

When I soar to worlds unknown, 

See Thee on Thy judgment Throne

Rock of Ages, cleft for me, 

Let me hide myself in Thee.
