Rock in the Desert

Author: F. M. D. Hymnal: Christian Hymns #218 (1935) First Line: O Rock in the desert, I fly unto Thee Refrain First Line: O Rock in the desert, I'm hiding in Thee Lyrics: 1 O Rock in the desert, I fly unto Thee, When tempest and storms sweep my sky, I hide in the cleft that was riven for me, For safety on Thee I reply. Chorus: O Rock in the desert, I'm hiding in Thee, Till the storms of life's journey are past; Thou Rock of my refuge, my soul safely keep, O receive it in heaven at last. 2 O Rock in the desert, my refuge and all, I hide in my weakness in Thee; Thy love is a shield and I find sweet repose, Where grace is abundant and free. [Chorus] 3 O Rock in the desert that gives perfect peace, That bringeth a joy to my soul; I rest in Thy shadow, I hide in Thy clef, Thy love does my spirit control. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [O Rock in the desert, I fly unto Thee]
