Representative Text

1 Around me oft the winds may blow,
And mad’ning waves rush to and fro,
I will not fear, tho’ fierce the shock,
For He hath set me on a rock.

Refrain:
O weary heart, that’s battled long
With hosts of sin, be brave and strong;
Look up to God amid the shock,
And He will set thee on a rock.

2 Tho’ thunders roar, and light’nings flash,
Tho’ fearful storms may round me crash,
At all their rage I well may mock,
For He hath set me on a rock. [Refrain]

3 Tho’ waters deep around me roll,
They have no pow’r to harm my soul;
I rest secure beneath their shock,
For He hath set me on a rock. [Refrain]
