Triumphant Songs No.3 ‎#74

74. Rock of Ages

1 Rock of Ages,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide,
Let me hide myself in thee;
Let the water and the blood,
From thy wounded side which flow’d,
Be of sin the double cure,
Save from wrath and make me pure.

Refrain:
Rock of Ages,
Rock of ages, cleft for me,
Rock of Ages,
Let me hide in thee.

2 Could my tears,
Could my tears forever flow,
Could my zeal,
Could my zeal no languor know,
These for sin could not atone,
Thou must save, and thou alone,
In my hand no price I bring,
Simply to thy cross I cling. [Refrain]

3 While I draw,
While I draw this fleeting breath,
When my eyes,
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 [Refrain]
