ROCK OF AGES
Author(s): Zechariah Waxman
Songbook: Compiled LJ Songs, Love Songs Songbook
KeyWords: Communion,

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 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

While I draw this fleeting breath,
When my eyes shall close in death
When I rise to worlds unknown,
And behold Thee on Thy throne
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 wounded side which flowed
Be of sin the double cure,
Save from wrath and make me pure
