1.
Rock of Ages, cleft for me
hide me now, my refuge be;
Let the water and the blood
From Your wounded side which flowed,
Be for sin the double cure,
Cleanse me from its guilt and power.
2.
Not the labours of my hands
Can fulfil Your law's demands;
Could my zeal no respite know;
Could my tears forever flow,
All for sin could not atone;
You must save, and You alone
3.
Nothing in my hand I bring,
Simply to Your cross I cling,
Naked come to You for dress;
Helpless look to You for grace;
stained by sin, to You I cry;
'Wash me ,Saviour , or I die!'
3.
While I draw this fleeting breath,
When mine eyelids close in death,
When I soar to worlds unknown,
Bow before the judgement throne;
Rock of ages cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in You!
