Hidden Within the Rock

There's a rock that's higher than I one that hides from my sin'e desire there flowed all that was my cure believe all this rejecting the liar The law can never be obeyed no amount of effort can it attain there's no hope for such sinfulness only Jesus can wipe my sinful stain Come do I with nothing on looking only to Calvary's hill there the Christ died for me with my sin He did eternally kill Then it'll be at life's final breath there after all my life death shall be to an unknown sphere way out there nothing more of this world will I see At the judgement seat will I bow please rock of ages hide me still within your presence so fully safe only there am I in your perfect will (Thinking of the hymn 'Rock of ages', took my thoughts of it to pen this piece.)
