Rock Of Ages

Lyrics

Lord, let me run to the Rock, to the Son
To the One who bore our burdens
Here on this mount mercy flows, grace abounds
As I trade my sin for pardon
There’s a cleft to hide my soul

You’re the Rock, You’re the Rock of ages
Strong enough, strong enough to save us
All the other ground is sinking sand
You’re the Rock, You’re the Rock of mercy
Strong enough, strong enough to hold me
All the other ground is sinking sand
All the other ground is sinking sand

All of my deeds, everything I’ve achieved
Cannot earn my way to favour
This is my plea; Jesus blood speaks for me
Over all my wins and failures
For the saving work is done

Fortress of peace, hide me safely within
Be my shield, my strength, my remedy
‘Til, on that day when my body gives way
Even then my Rock will hide me
As I walk through heaven’s doors

You’re the Rock, You’re the Rock of ages
Strong enough, strong enough to save us
All the other ground is sinking sand
You’re the Rock, You’re the Rock of mercy
Strong enough, strong enough to hold me
All the other ground is sinking sand
All the other ground is sinking sand
