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? This for sin could not atone Thou must save and Thou alone
In my hand no prize I bring Simply to Thy cross I cling While I draw this fleeting breath When my eyes shall close in d**h When I rise to worlds unknown And behold Thee on thy throne Rock of ages, cleft for me Let me hide myself in Thee Let me hide myself in Thee
