There's a firm
Sheltering Rock |

There’s
a firm Sheltering Rock and a strong Fortress Tower,
Where the weary and weak can renew failing power;
Where the tempted and care-laden spirit may fly, -
O lead me to the Rock that is higher than I.
Lead me to the Rock,
lead me to the Rock,
lead me to the Rock that is higher than I.
‘Tis
the refuge of rest through the conflicts of life,
’Tis the balm of the soul when dismayed in the strife,
’Tis the source of salvation, that stream never dry, -
O lead me to the Rock that is higher than I.
Lead me to the Rock....
‘Tis
my comfort and stay, ‘tis my safety and joy,
When the heart is o’erwhelmed with the ills that annoy,
When the fierce-sweeping tempest of sorrow is nigh, -
O lead me to the Rock that is higher than I.
Lead me to the Rock....
