300. Rock of Ages

Bb            Eb        Bb                 F7      Bb
Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide my-self in Thee;

Bb      F7            Bb              F7               Bb
Let the water and the blood, From Thy riven side which flowed,

Bb            Eb     Bb    Gm         Bb       F7        Bb
Be of sin the double cure, Cleanse me from its guilt and power.


[[Full Lyrics]]

[Verse 1]
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee;
Let the water and the blood,
From Thy riven side which flowed,
Be of sin the double cure,
Cleanse me from its guilt and power.

[Verse 2]
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.

[Verse 3]
When my pilgrimage I close;
Victor o’er the last of foes,
When I soar to worlds unknown,
And behold Thee on Thy throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee.
