Showers of Blessing ‎#49

49. A Blessed Refuge

1 I have found a blessed refuge
From the stormy waves that roll;
I have found a blessed refuge,
And an anchor for my soul.

Refrain:
I am hiding in the Rock
That forevermore shall stand,
And I rest beneath its shadow,
In a weary, thirsty land.

2 I have found a loving Saviour
At the precious gate of prayer;
How he looked and smiled upon me,
As he bade me welcome there. [Refrain]

3 I have found the crimson waters;
They have washed away my sin;
I have found the holy rapture
Of a constant peace within. [Refrain]

4 In the cross of my Redeemer
Shall my glory ever be,
In the cross of my Redeemer,
Where he shed his blood for me. [Refrain]
