Author: F. D. B. Hymnal: Carols of Hope #39 (1906) First Line: On the Rock of Ages founded Refrain First Line: Rock of Ages! Rock of Ages! Lyrics: 1. On the Rock of Ages founded,
Safe retreat for souls oppressed;
Long in desert wilds I wandered,
Here at last I found my rest.
Chorus:
Rock of Ages! Rock of Ages!
How secure on thee we stand;
Rock of Ages! Rock of Ages!
Save us from the sinking sand.
2. On the Rock of Ages founded,
'Mid the storms and wrecks of time;
On this Rock now safely standing,
Great Redeemer, thou art mine. [Chorus]
3. On the Rock of Ages founded,
Here my house securely stands;
Would you have a sure foundation?
Do not build upon the sands. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [On the Rock of Ages founded]
Founded On the Rock
