Rock of Ages Chords
from "Hymns of the Son"
(Capo 3)
​
Intro/Interludes: G C G C G C G
G C G
Rock of ages cleft for me,
D/F# G
Let me hide myself in Thee;
D/F# G
Let the water and the blood,
D/F# G
From Thy wounded side which flowed,
G C G
Be of sin the double cure,
D/F# G
Save from wrath and make me pure.
G C G
Not the labors of my hands,
D/F# G
Can fulfill the law's demands;
D/F# G
Could my zeal no respite know,
D/F# G
Could my tears forever flow,
G C G
All for sin could not atone;
D/F# G
Thou must save, and thou alone.
G C G
Nothing in my hand I bring,
D/F# G
Simply to the cross I cling;
D/F# G
Without clothes I come for dress,
D/F# G
Without hope I come for rest,
G C G
For that fountain now I cry;
D/F# G
Wash me, Savior, or I die.
G C G
While I draw this fleeting breath,
D/F# G
When my eyes shall close in death,
D/F# G
When I soar to worlds unknown,
D/F# G
See thee on thy judgment throne,
G C G
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
D/F# G
Let me hide myself in thee.
