Rock of ages

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.

Not the labors of my hands
Can fulfill thy law's commands
Could my zeal no respite know,
Could my tears forever flow,
All for sin could not atone
Thou must save, and thou alone.

Nothing in my hand I bring,
Simply to the cross I cling
Naked, come to thee for dress
Helpless, look to thee for grace
Foul, I to the fountain fly
Wash me, Savior, or I die..

While I draw this fleeting breath,
When mine eyes shall close in death,
When I soar to worlds unknown,
See thee on thy judgment throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in thee.
