Rock of Ages, cleft for me

Author: Augustus Montague Toplady (1740-1778) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 2,997 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Rock of ages cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee; let the water and the blood, from thy riven side which flowed, be of sin the double cure, cleanse me from its guilt and power. 2 Not the labours of my hands can fulfill thy law's demands; could my zeal no respite know, could my tears for ever flow, all for sin could not atone; thou must save, and thou alone. 3 Nothing in my hand I bring, simply to thy cross I cling; naked, come to thee for dress; helpless, look to thee for grace; stained by sin, to thee I fly; wash me, Saviour, or I die. 4 While I draw this fleeting breath, when my eyelids close in death, when I soar through realms unknown, see thee on thy judgement throne, Rock of ages, cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee.

Go to Dark Gethsemane

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 514 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Go to dark Gethsemane, Ye that feel the tempter's pow'r; Your Redeemer's conflict see; Watch with Him one bitter hour; Turn not from His griefs away; Learn of Jesus Christ to pray. 2 Follow to the judgment hall; View the Lord of life arraigned; O the wormwood and the gall! O the pangs His soul sustained! Shun not suff'ring, shame, or loss; Learn of Him to bear the cross. 3 Calv'ry's mournful mountain climb; There, adoring at His feet, Mark that miracle of time, God's own sacrifice complete: "It is finished!" hear the cry; Learn of Jesus Christ to die. 4 Early hasten to the tomb Where they laid His breathless clay; All is solitude and gloom; Who hath taken Him away? Christ is ris'n! He meets our eyes: Savior, teach us so to rise. Topics: Jesus Death Scripture: Matthew 26:36-68 Used With Tune: REDHEAD 76
