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.
Chorus:
Hiding in Thee,
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 pow'r;
In the tempests of life, on its wide, heaving sea,
Thou blest "Rock of Ages," I'm hiding in Thee. [Chorus]
3 How oft in the conflict, when press'd by the foe,
I have fled to my Refuge and breath'd out my woe;
How often, when trials like sea billows roll,
Have I hidden in Thee, O Thou Rock of my soul. [Chorus]
