Representative Text

1 As a pilgrim now I wander,
‘Mid the toils of life I walk;
But my rest will be up yonder
In the shadow of the Rock.

Chorus:
In the shadow of the Rock,
In the shadow of the Rock;
I’ll soon be resting yonder,
In the shadow of the Rock.

2 There are cares and toils unceasing,
Where the burning deserts mock;
But a heav’nly rest waits yonder
In the shadow of the Rock. [Chorus]

3 Here with wants and woes assailing,
And the angry tempest’s shock;
Not a grief or care up yonder
In the shadow of the Rock. [Chorus]

4 When I cross the dreary valley,
And will join the chosen flock;
I will rest forever yonder
In the shadow of the Rock. [Chorus]
