God, Our Unchanging Rock

This verse introduces 'the Rock' as a key name for God, used five times in this song. Commentators explain this title emphasizes God's immutability, strength, and reliability. He is a firm foundation for our hope and a refuge in trouble. Several scholars see this as a direct reference to Christ, who is the ultimate Rock of our salvation (1 Corinthians 10:4).
