Author: Rev. William O. Cushing Hymnal: Hallowed Hymns, New and Old #166 (1908) Hymnal Title: Hallowed Hymns, New and Old First Line: O safe to the Rock that is higher than I Lyrics: 1 O safe to the Rock that is higher than I,
My soul in its conflicts and sorrows would fly;
So sinful, so weary, Thine, Thine would I be;
Thou blest "Rock of Ages," I'm hiding in thee.
Refrain:
Hiding in Thee,
Hiding in Thee,
Thou blest "Rock of Ages,"
I'm hiding in Thee.
2 In the calm of the noontide, in sorrow's lone hour,
In times when temptation casts o'er me its power;
In the tempests of life, on its wide, heaving sea,
Thou blest "Rock of Ages," I'm hiding in thee. [Refrain]
3 How oft in the conflict, when pressed by the foe,
I have fled to my Refuge and breathed out my woe;
How often, when trials like sea billows roll,
Have I hidden in thee, O Thou Rock of my soul. [Refrain] Topics: Refuge--Rock; Safety-Security Languages: English Tune Title: [O safe to the Rock that is higher than I]
