Rock of Ages, Cleft for Me

Author: Augustus M. Toplady Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 2,895 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 71:3 Lyrics: 1 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, Cleanse me from its guilt and power. 2 Not the labors 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. 3 Nothing in my hand I bring, Simply to Thy cross I cling; Naked, come to Thee for dress, Helpless, look to Thee for grace; Foul, I to the fountain fly; Wash me, Saviour, or I die. 4 While I draw this fleeting breath, When my eyelids 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. Amen. Topics: Christ Strength and Refuge; Forgiveness; Humility; Penitence; Life in Christ Repentance and Forgiveness Used With Tune: TOPLADY
