Lyrics
Sometimes I feel discouraged and I think my work’s in vain
I’m tempted oft to murmur, to grumble and complain
Oh, but then I think of Jesus and what He’s done for me
And then I cry, oh, Rock of Ages, hide Thou me
Oh, Rock of Ages, hide Thou me
There is no other refuge can save, Lord, but Thee
And through this dark world I’ve wandered far, far from Thee
But then I cry, oh, Rock of Ages, hide Thou me
Oh, Rock of Ages, hide Thou me
There is no other refuge can save, Lord, but Thee
Through this dark world I’ve wandered far, far from Thee
But then I cried, oh, Rock of Ages, hide Thou Me
Oh but then I cried, oh, Rock of Ages, hide Thou Me
