Song Lyrics
There stands a Rock, on shores of time
That rears to heav'n it's head sublime
That Rock is cleft, and they are blest
Who find within this cleft a rest
That Rock's a cross, it's arms outspread
Celestial glory bathes it's head
To it's form base my all I bring
And to the Cross of Ages cling
That Rock's a tow'r, whose lofty height
Illumed with heav'n's unclouded light
Opes wide it's gates beneath the dome
Where saints find rest with Christ at home
Some build their hopes on the everdrifting sand
Some on their fame or their treasure or their land
Mine's on the Rock that forever shall stand
Jesus the "Rock of Ages."
