1. Rock of Ages, cleft for me,Let me hide myself in thee;Let the water and the bloodFrom thy wounded side which flowed,Be of sin the double cure;Save from wrath and make me pure.
2. While I draw this fleeting breath,When my eyes shall close in death,When I rise to worlds unknownAnd behold thee on thy throne,Rock of Ages, cleft for me,Let me hide myself in thee.
