Rock of Ages


Rock of Ages,
Constant You remain;
Yesterday, today and forever the same! (chorus)

Saints and angels Your praises sing;
Through countless eons their voices ring!
Your steadfastness not eroded by time,
Creator of the worlds sublime!

You are the Rock which is higher than me,
I will forever run to thee!
In Your secret pavilion I will be,
Forever sheltered by Your mercy…

You are my strength when all falls apart;
Though the earth crumble, constant thou art!
Show me Your way, help me decide
When I am faced with the crossroads of life…

When no knight in shining armour
Rides to my rescue;
I am content because I have You!

Rock of Ages, bulwark of time;
You are strong forever, forever  mine!
I will trust in Your everlasting love
As revealed in  the Son who came from above…
