Jesus, My Rock

Verse 1

I rest in the shadow of Jesus, my Rock, Secure from the storm and the tempest’s rude shock; I dread not at noontide the sun’s scorching ray, Nor fear in the darkness when closes the day.

Chorus

In the shadow of the rock I am resting, I am resting; From the storm and tempest’s shock I am resting, I am resting; I fear no harm from the midnight’s dread alarm; I know I am sheltered in the shadow of the rock.

Verse 2

My head He’ll anoint, and my cup He will fill, His goodness and mercy will follow me still; I walk in green pastures, with Jesus to guide, No evil I fear, all my wants are supplied.

Verse 3

The twilight awaits me that cometh to all, And soon o’er my pathway death’s shadow may fall; The Master will meet me at setting of sun, With ample reward and a blessed “Well done.”
