Oh, safe to the Rock that is higher than I,

1.Oh, 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.
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 cast o'er me its
power;
In the tempest of life, on its wide, heaving sea,
Thou blest Rock of Ages, I'm hiding in Thee.
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.
