What matter if the rough winds blow?
I’m fearing not the storms which gather,
There’s safety in the Lord I know.
Refrain:
I’m standing on the Rock of Ages,
In safety I may here abide;
The surging waves will not o’erwhelm me,
I’m fearing neither wind or tide.
2 I’m standing on the Rock of Ages,
The angry winds go sweeping by;
No storm can shake the rock beneath me,
I’m singing as the waves dash high. [Refrain]
3 I’m standing on the Rock of Ages,
Though billows in their fury roll,
I’m trusting in the Lord forever,
No tempest can affright my soul. [Refrain] Used With Tune: BENGHAZI Text Sources: Singing For Joy
I'm Standing On The Rock Of Ages
Say, Is This Wild, Corrupted Nation
Author: Susanna Harrison Meter: 9.8.9.8 D Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Say, is this wild, corrupted nation
Blest with a few who seek the Lord?
Say, is there one in every station
Who loves t’obey Jehovah’s word?
2 Are all agreed t’increase the sadness
Of such a dark and gloomy time?
Do all run on in headstrong madness,
And scorn repentance for the crime?
3 Is this, indeed, our sad condition?
No: let me bless the God of grace!
There are a few who with contrition
Lament for sin before His face.
4 Let me encourage their confession,
Their strong entreaties for this land!
Though ’tis a time of great transgression,
Yet, surely, God is still at hand.
5 Ye humble souls, pray without ceasing,
To you the Lord will lend an ear;
While sins and judgments are increasing,
O pray in faith and persevere.
6 O pray, nor be too much dejected,
Ask all in Jesu’s worthy name!
Your suit shall never be rejected,
Through Him we may forgiveness claim.
7 Come, sinners, join in each petition,
Nor tempt the Lord by your delay:
He gives repentance and remission
To all who do sincerely pray.
8 Let every soul in every station
Join their assistance—who can tell
But God may turn and bless this nation,
And send contention down to hell. Used With Tune: BENGHAZI Text Sources: Songs in the Night (Ipswich, England: Punchard & Jermyn, 1780)
