P. 405

The Savior of this world is close to me,
                    He speaks His words of love into my ears;
                        I can already see Him as He is,
                 His voice empowers me with peace and strength.
                                  3
                      I have a Comforter, the Holy Ghost,
                 It gives me the courage, strength, and virtue, too;
                    He fills my heart with joy, fervor and love,
                     So with my faith I will sing to my Lord.

                       The rock of ages, it is my refuge,
                      My safest haven when storms arise;
                   And Jesus Christ gives my soul His comfort,
                    And if there's danger, He gives me peace.
                               CHORUS
                       The rock of ages, eternal refuge,
               Though storms may threaten, though winds may roar;
                       My haven's safety is ever standing,
                       It is the place where I will be safe.
                                  2
                     Upon this boulder I've built my shelter,
                      My hope is founded, rest is assured;
                     Christ is preparing His blessed People,
                     And He will take them to Zion's heights.
                                  3
                     If storms of hatred are fiercely brewing,
                      All men will perish for their own sins;
                       I will fear nothing, I have a refuge,
                       And I am going to my blest home.
