  55. ROCK OF AGES

  By Augustus Montague Toplady

  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.

  Not the labors of my hands

  Can fulfill thy law's commands;

  Could my zeal no respite know,

  Could my tears forever flow,

  All for sin could not atone;

  Thou must save, and thou alone.

  Nothing in my hand I bring,

  Simply to the 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.

  While I draw this fleeting breath,

  When mine eyes shall close in death,

  When I soar to worlds unknown,

  See thee on thy judgment throne,

  Rock of Ages, cleft for me,

  Let me hide myself in thee.

  Leaning, leaning,

  Safe and secure from all alarms;

  Leaning, leaning,

  Leaning on the everlasting arms.

  Oh, how sweet to walk in this pilgrim way,

  Leaning on the everlasting arms;

  Oh, how bright the path grows from day to day,

  Leaning on the everlasting arms. {Refrain}

  What have I to dread, what have I to fear,

  Leaning on the everlasting arms?

  I have blessed peace with my Lord so near,

  Leaning on the everlasting arms. {Refrain}

  57. MY HOPE IS BUILT ON NOTHING ELSE

  By Edward Mote, 1834

  Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness.

  I dare not trust the sweetest frame,

  But wholly trust in Jesus’ Name.

  On Christ the solid Rock I stand,

  I rest on His unchanging grace.

  In every high and stormy gale,

  My anchor holds within the veil. {Refrain}

  Support me in the whelming flood.

  When all around my soul gives way,

  By D. B. Towner, 1887

  When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word,

  While we do His good will, He abides with us still,

  And with all who will trust and obey.

  Refrain:

  Trust and obey, for there’s no other way

  To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

  Not a shadow can rise, not a cloud in the skies,

  But His smile quickly drives it away;

  Not a doubt or a fear, not a sigh or a tear,

  Can abide while we trust and obey. {Refrain}

  Not a burden we bear, not a sorrow we share,

  But our toil He doth richly repay;

  Not a grief or a loss, not a frown or a cross,

  But is blessed if we trust and obey. {Refrain}

  But we never can prove the delights of His love

  Until all on the altar we lay;

  For the favor He shows, for the joy He bestows,

  Are for them who will trust and obey. {Refrain}

  Then in fellowship sweet we will sit at His feet.

  Or we’ll walk by His side in the way.

  What He says we will do, where He sends we will go;

  Never fear, only trust and obey. {Refrain}

  67. ’TIS SO SWEET TO TRUST IN JESUS

  Louisa M. R. Stead, 1882

  ’Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,

  And to know, “Thus says the Lord!”

  Refrain:

  Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!

  How I’ve proved Him o’er and o’er

  Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!

  O for grace to trust Him more!

  O how sweet to trust in Jesus,

  Just to trust His cleansing blood;

  And in simple faith to plunge me

  ’Neath the healing, cleansing flood! {Refrain}

  Yes, ’tis sweet to trust in Jesus,

  Just from sin and self to cease;

  Just from Jesus simply taking

  Life and rest, and joy and peace. {Refrain}

  I’m so glad I learned to trust Thee,

  Precious Jesus, Savior, Friend;

  And I know that Thou art with me,

  Wilt be with me to the end. {Refrain}
