Rock of Ages
 
1. 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. 
 
2. Could my tears forever flow, 
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. 
 
3. When the time of wrath draws nigh, 
Frightful darkness fills the sky,
Angry voices seeking blood, 
Swept away by fire and flood;
Rock of Ages, cleft for me, 
Let me hide myself in Thee. 
 
4. When I rise to worlds unknown, 
And behold Thee on Thy throne,
This my song and safety be, 
Evermore, eternally: 
"Rock of Ages, cleft for me, 
Let me hide myself in Thee."
