1.⁠O 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
⁠Refrain
⁠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 casts o'er me its power,
In the tempests of life, on its wide, heaving sea,
Thou blest ' Rock of Ages,' I'm hiding in thee
Refrain
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 hid - den in thee, O thou Rock of my Soul
Refrain
Amen
