Rock of Ages, Cleft for Me (C-_) =========================== Music: Thomas Hastings, 1784-1872 Text: Augustus M. Toplady, 1740-1778 [Elő] F Cm7 F [1] C C Rock of Ages, cleft for me, G(G7) C let me hide myself in Thee; G(G7) C let the water and the blood, G(G7) C from thy wounded side which flowed, C C be of sin the double cure; G(G7) C save from wrath and make me pure. [2] C C Not the labors of my hands G(G7) C can fulfill thy law's commands; G(G7) C could my zeal no respite know, G(G7) C could my tears forever flow, C C all for sin could not atone; G(G7) C thou must save, and thou alone. [3] C C Nothing in my hand I bring, G(G7) C simply to the cross I cling; G(G7) C naked, come to thee for dress; G(G7) C helpless, look to thee for grace; C C foul, I to the fountain fly; G(G7) C wash me, Savior, or I die. [4] C C While I draw this fleeting breath, G(G7) C when mine eyes shall close in death, G(G7) C when I soar to worlds unknown, G(G7) C see thee on thy judgment throne, C C Rock of Ages, cleft for me, G(G7) C let me hide myself in thee. ======================================================= The United Methodist Hymnal Number 361
