Author: Ford Cyrinde Ottman Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10898 Refrain First Line: Hide me, hide me, hide me Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou my only refuge, Rock of Ages, cleft for me; As the storm clouds round me gather, Let me hide myself in Thee. Refrain: Hide me, hide me, hide me; Oh, my Savior, hide me; While the stormy billows roll, Thou the refuge of my soul. 2 Words and thoughts and best endeavor, These for sin could not atone; From the sea now raging round me, Thou canst save, and Thou alone. [Refrain] 3 Earnestly I plead for mercy; Foul, I to the fountain fly; In the blood shed for redemption, Wash me, Savior, or I die. [Refrain] 4 In Thy presence safely hide me, While I draw this fleeting breath; To the haven surely guide me, When mine eyes shall close in death. [Refrain] 5 Hide me, oh, my Savior, hide me, When I soar to worlds unknown; When I shall, in Thy great glory, See Thee on Thy judgment throne. [Refrain] 6 Then, forevermore, dear Savior, Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Saved from death and sin and sorrow, Let me hide myself in Thee.

Roblin (a anagram of his name) ================ Peter Philip Bilhorn was born, in Mendota, IL. His father died in the Civil War 3 months before he was born. His early life was not easy.

At this time, he and his brother also formed the Eureka Wagon & Carriage Works in Chicago, IL. At 18 Peter became involved in gospel music, studying under George F. Root and George C. Stebbins. He traveled to the Dakotas and spent some time sharing the gospel with cowboys there. He traveled extensively with D. L. Moody, and was Billy Sunday's song leader on evangelistic endeavors.
