1 There's a song that the world is singing,
Bringing a message of hope and cheer,
Rock of ages clift for me
Many a times it has brought new courage,
Driving away every doubt and fear,
Rock of ages, clift for me.

Refrain:
Rock of ages, clift for me, clift for me
Let me hide myself in Thee
While the raging waters roll, near me roll.
Rock of ages, clift for me.

2 As we cross o're [sic] the rolling ocean,
Let me hide blessed rock in Thee.
Rock of ages, clift for me
Sing it to all of the weak and weary,
Sing it again and again to me,
Rock of ages, clift for me. [Refrain]

3 As we draw this fleeting breath
And our eyelids close in death
Rock of ages, clift for me,
As we rise to the world unknown
Rock of ages, clift for me.
