Sheltered in the Rock of Ages
Author: Ernest Geo. Wesley Hymnal: The Crowning Day #90 (1894) First Line: Sheltered in the "Rock of Ages" Refrain First Line: Safely sheltered in the Rock Lyrics: 1 Sheltered in the “Rock of Ages,”
Safe when storm and tempest rages,
Safe, so safe am I;
Strongest wave can harm me never,
Here my soul shall rest forever,
Safe, so safe am I.
Refrain:
Safely sheltered in the Rock,
Safe, so safe am I;
Safely sheltered in the Rock,
Safe, so safe am I.
2 Sheltered in the “Rock of Ages,”
Safe when sin its death-strife wages,
Safe, so safe am I;
Swiftest shaft falls harmless, shattered,
Fiercest foeman’s forces scattered,
Safe, so safe am I. [Refrain]
3 Sheltered in the “Rock of Ages,”
Deep “His peace” which fear assuages,
Safe, so safe am I;
Kept secure from sorrow’s sadness,
Changeth heart-pain into gladness,
Safe, so safe am I. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Sheltered in the “Rock of Ages”]

Sheltered in the Rock of Ages
Author: Ernest G. W. Wesley Hymnal: Make Christ King #51 (1912) Lyrics: 1 Sheltered in the Rock of Ages,
Safe am I while Christ doth keep,
I can smile when tempest rages,
Guarded by my Lord, I sleep.
Refrain:
Sheltered in the Rock of Ages,
Sheltered in the Rock,
Sheltered in the Rock,
I am safe when tempest rages,
Sheltered in the Rock divine.
2 There no wave of doubt can harm me,
Nor can aught my peace destroy;
Kept am I when storms assail me,
Nor can anxious care annoy. [Refrain]
3 Vainly dash the billows o’er me,
’Mid their loudest roar I sing;
Though the thunders crash around me,
To the winds my fears I fling. [Refrain]
4 ’Tis so sweet in Christ to rest me,
When all earthly comforts fail;
He doth ever cheer and bless me,
Faith in Him doth e’er prevail. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Sheltered in the Rock of Ages]
