37. Rock of Ages

1 Jesus, Lover of my soul,
Let me to Thy bosom fly,
While the billows near me roll,
While the tempest still is high.

Refrain:
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee.

2 Other refuge have I none:
Hangs my helpless soul on Thee:
Leave, ah, leave, me not alone;
Still support and comfort me. [Refrain]

3 All my trust on Thee is stayed;
All my help from Thee I bring;
Cover my defenseless head
With the shadow of Thy wing. [Refrain]
