Beeld

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;
SAVE FROM WRATH AND MAKE ME PURE.

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.

NOTHING IN MY HAND I BRING,
SIMPLY TO THE CROSS I CLING;
NAKED, COME TO THEE FOR DRESS;
HELPLESS, LOOK TO THEE FOR GRACE;
FOUL, I TO THE FOUNTAIN FLY;
WASH ME, SAVIOR, OR I DIE.

WHILE I DRAW THIS FLEETING BREATH,
WHEN MINE EYES SHALL 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
