Rock of Ages

(A. Toplady)

Chorus:
Rock of ages cleft for me
Let me hide myself in Thee

Rock of ages cleft for me
Let me hide myself in Thee
Let the water and the blood
From Thy riven side which flowed
Be of sin the double cure

Cleanse me from its guilt and power

Not the labor of my hands
Can fulfill Thy laws demands
Could my zeal no respite know
Could my tears forever flow
All for sin could not atone
Thou must save and Thou alone

While I draw this fleeting breath
When my eyes shall close in death
While I soar to worlds unknown
See Thee on Thy judgment throne
