The Tested Rock

Barney Elliott Warren • English

Primary Scripture: 2 Samuel 22:3

Verse 1

Rock of ages, hide my soul, Keep me while the billows roll; When the threat’ning waves I see, Let me ever hide in Thee.

Chorus

Hide me, blessed Rock of ages, Hide my soul in Thee.

Verse 2

Safely in that Rock I hide, While it breaks the rolling tide: He whose pow’r controls the deep, Stands my helpless soul to keep.

Chorus

Hide me, blessed Rock of ages, Hide my soul in Thee.

Verse 3

Rock of ages stands today, Like a monarch in the fray; Tested by the greatest storm, Yet unshaken is its form.

Chorus

Hide me, blessed Rock of ages, Hide my soul in Thee.
