- 1Threat'ning storms and tempestsMay sweep o'er my soulBut I dread not the fearful shock;I am trusting in the everlasting God,I am standing on the Solid Rock.I am standing, standing,(I am standing on the Rock, standing on the Rock,)I'm standing on the Rock of Ages,I am standing, standing,(I am standing on the Rock, standing on the Rock,)I'm standing on the Solid Rock.
- 2Doubts and fears may rise to shake my feeble faith,And temptation my soul assail;But I stand securely on the Solid Rock,And they never, never can prevail.I am standing, standing,(I am standing on the Rock, standing on the Rock,)I'm standing on the Rock of Ages,I am standing, standing,(I am standing on the Rock, standing on the Rock,)I'm standing on the Solid Rock.
- 3What have I to fear though wild the billows roll?God is ruler of wind and wave;While my feet are planted on the Solid Rock,Ev'ry threat'ning peril I can brave.I am standing, standing,(I am standing on the Rock, standing on the Rock,)I'm standing on the Rock of Ages,I am standing, standing,(I am standing on the Rock, standing on the Rock,)I'm standing on the Solid Rock.
- 4I am safe while hiding in my Savior's side,Sheltered in His almighty arm;Anchored to the Rock of Ages I'm secure,God will shield me from all ill and harm.I am standing, standing,(I am standing on the Rock, standing on the Rock,)I'm standing on the Rock of Ages,I am standing, standing,(I am standing on the Rock, standing on the Rock,)I'm standing on the Solid Rock.Amen.
