327. He's Hiding My Soul

1. A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord,
A wonderful Savior to me;
He's hiding my soul in the cleft of the rock,
Where rivers of pleasure I see.

Refrain:
He's hiding my soul in the cleft of the rock
That shadows a dry, thirsty land;
He's hiding my life in the depths of his love
And cov'ring me there with his hand,
And cov'ring me there with his hand.

2. A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord;
He carries my burdens away,
He's holding me up, and I shall not be moved;
He's giving me strength day by day. [Refrain]

3. With numberless blessings each moment he crowns
And fills with his fullness divine;
I sing in my rapture, oh, glory to God
For such a Redeemer is mine. [Refrain]

4. When clothed in his brightness, transported I rise
To meet him in clouds of the sky,
His perfect salvation, his wonderful love,
I'll shout with the millions on high. [Refrain]
