IN THE RIFTED ROCK I’M RESTING

LYRICS

In the rifted Rock I’m resting, safely sheltered, I abide.
There no enemy can harm me – while within the Cleft I hide.

Now I’m resting, sweetly resting in the Cleft once made for me.
Jesus, blessed Rock of Ages – I will hide myself in Thee. 

When I’m lonely and defenseless, my heart longs for rest and peace.
Then You spread your sings of caring – with Your love you cover me.

In the rifted Rock I’m resting ‘til the storms of life are past.
All secure in God, my refuge – heeding not the stormy blast.

Peace which passes understanding, joy the world can never give;
now in Jesus I am finding – in His light of love I live.
