Rock Of Ages Lyrics


Mahalia Jackson 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 Thy law's demands;
Could my zeal no respite 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
