Author: E. Johnson Hymnal: Laudes Domini #303 (1890) First Line: Oh, sometimes the shadows are deep Lyrics: 1 Oh, sometimes the shadows are deep,
And rough seems the path to the goal;
And sorrows sometimes how they sweep
Like tempests down over the soul.
Refrain:
Oh, then, to the Rock let me fly,
To the Rock that is higher than I:
Oh, then to the Rock let me fly,
To the Rock that is higher than I.
2 Oh, sometimes how long seems the day,
And sometimes how weary my feet;
But toiling is life's dusty way,
The Rock's blessed shadow how sweet. [Refrain]
3 Oh, near to the Rock let me keep,
If blessings or sorrows prevail;
Or climbing the mountain way steep,
Or walking the shadowy vale. [Refrain]
