Lyrics

Verse 1

There stands a Rock on shores of time That rears to heav'n its head sublime; That Rock is cleft, and they are blest Who find within the cleft of rest.

Verse 2

That Rock's a cross, its arms outspread, Cellestial glory bathes its head; To its firm base my all I bring, And to the cross of Ages clingI

Verse 3

That Rock's a tow'r whose lofty height, Illumed with heav'ns unclouded light, Opes wide its gates beneath the dome, Where saints find rest with Christ at home.

Chorus

Some build their hopes on the everdrifting sand, Some on their fame or their treasure of their land; Mine's on the Rock that forever will stand, Jesus the "Rock of Ages."
