Hymn 186 ROCK OF AGES Lyrics

1. Rock of Ages clef 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 care,
Save from wrath and make me pure

2. 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.

3. 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.
