Hide Thou Me (Crosby)

In Thy cleft

O Rock of Ages

hide Thou me!

When the fit­ful tem­pest rag­es

hide Thou me!

Where no mor­tal arm can sev­er

From my heart Thy love for­ev­er

Hide me

O Thou Rock of Ag­es

safe in Thee!

From the snare of sin­ful plea­sure

hide Thou me!

Thou

my soul’s eter­nal trea­sure

hide Thou me!

When the world its pow­er is wield­ing

And my heart is al­most yield­ing

Hide me

O Thou Rock of Ag­es

safe in Thee!

In the lone­ly night of sor­row

hide Thou me!

Till in glo­ry dawns the mor­row

hide Thou me!

When we’re near­ing Jor­dan’s bil­low

Let Thy bo­som be my pil­low;

Hide me

O Thou Rock of Ag­es

safe in Thee!
