10: The Tested Rock


Rock of ages, hide my soul,
Keep me while the billows roll;
When the threat’ning waves I see,
Let me ever hide in Thee.

Refrain:
Hide me, blessed Rock of ages,
Hide my soul in Thee.

Safely in that Rock I hide,
While it breaks the rolling tide:
He whose pow’r controls the deep,
Stands my helpless soul to keep.

Rock of ages stands today,
Like a monarch in the fray;
Tested by the greatest storm,
Yet unshaken is its form.
