Rock of Ages

Author: Augustus M. Toplady Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 2,899 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 26:4 First Line: Rock of Ages, cleft for me Lyrics: 1 Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee; Let the water and the blood, From Thy wounded side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Save from wrath and make me pure. 2 Not the labor of my hands Can fulfill Thy law's demands; Could my zeal no respite know, Could my tears forever 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; Foul, I to the fountain fly; Wash me, Savior, or I die. 4 While I draw this fleeting breath, When my eyes shall close in death, When I rise to worlds unknown, And behold Thee on Thy throne, Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee.

Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken

Author: John Newton Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,290 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 26:4 Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of thee are spoken, Zion, city of our God; he, whose word cannot be broken, formed thee for his own abode; on the Rock of Ages founded, what can shake thy sure repose? With salvation’s walls surrounded, thou mayst smile at all thy foes. 2 See the streams of living water springing from eternal love, well supply thy sons and daughters, and all fear of want remove; who can faint while such a river ever flows their thirst to assuage, grace which, like the Lord, the giver, never fails from age to age. 3 Blest inhabitants of Zion, washed in their Redeemer's blood, Jesus, whom their souls rely on, makes them kings and priests to God. 'Tis his love his people raises over self to reign as kings, and as priests, his solemn praises each for a thank-off'ring brings. 4 Savior, if of Zion's city I through grace a member am, let the world deride or pity-- I will glory in thy name; fading are the worldling's pleasures, all their boasted pomp and show; solid joys and lasting treasure none but Zion's children know.

Hymn 30

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 26 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 26:12 First Line: In thine own ways, O God of love Lyrics: In thine own ways, O God of love, We wait the visits of thy grace, Our soul's desire is to thy name, And the remembrance of thy face. My thoughts are searching, Lord, for thee 'Mongst the black shades of lonesome night; My earnest cries salute the skies Before the dawn restore the light. Look, how rebellious men deride The tender patience of my God! But they shall see thy lifted hand, And feel the scourges of thy rod. Hark! the Eternal rends the sky, A mighty voice before him goes; A voice of music to his friends, But threat'ning thunder to his foes. Come, children, to your Father's arms, Hide in the chambers of my grace, Till the fierce storms be overblown, And my revenging fury cease. My sword shall boast its thousands slain, And drink the blood of haughty kings, While heav'nly peace around my flock Stretches its soft and shady wings.
