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 longer know, All for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and thou alone, In my hand no price I bring, Simply to the cross I cling;
While I draw this fleeting breath, When mine eyes shall close in death, When I rise to worlds unknown, And behold thee on thy judgment throne, Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in thee.
