Rock of Ages

Hymnal: LL1881 #77 (1881) First Line: Rock of ages, cleft for me Lyrics: 1 Rock of ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in thee; Let the water and the blood, From thy wounded side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure; Save from wrath and make me pure. 2 Could my tears forever flow, Could my zeal no langour know, These for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and thou alone; In my hand no price I bring; Simply to thy cross I cling. 3 While I draw this fleeting breath, When my eyes shall close in death, When I soar to worlds unknown, And behold thee on thy throne, Rock of ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in thee.

As when the weary trav'ler gains

Hymnal: LL1881 #85 (1881) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 As when the weary trav'ler gains The height of some commanding hill, His heart revives if, o'er the plains, He sees his home, tho' distant still; 2 Thus, when the Christian pilgrim views By faith his mansion in the skies, The sight his fainting strength renews, And wings his speed to reach the prize. 3 The thought of home his spirit cheers; No more he grieves for troubles past, Nor any future trials fears So he may safe arrive at last.
