Words by Augustus Montague Toplady
Music by Thomas Hastings *

A       D     A
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
       E    A
let me hide myself in Thee
    E       A
Let the water and the blood,
     E         A
from Thy wounded side which flowed
       D   A
Be of sin the double cure;
          E    A
save from wrath and make me pure.

A       D   A
Not the labors of my hands,
        E    A
can fulfill Thy law's demands
     E        A
Could my zeal no respite know,
     E       A
could my tears forever flow
         D  A
All for sin could not atone;
          E   A
Thou must save, and Thou alone.

A       D   A
Nothing in my hand I bring,
       E    A
simply to the cross I cling
    E        A
Naked, come to Thee for dress;
     E        A
helpless, look to Thee for grace
        D    A
Foul, I to the fountain fly;
         E  A
wash me, Savior, or I die.

A         D    A
While I draw this fleeting breath,
           E    A
when mine eyes shall close in death
    E        A
When I soar to worlds unknown,
  E          A
see Thee on Thy judgment throne
       D     A
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
       E    A
let me hide myself in Thee.
