Hymns Supplied Through the Gracious Generosity
of the Cyber Hymnal Website
Words: Erastus Johnson (1826-1909).
Music: "The Rock of Refuge," William Gustavus Fischer (1835-1912)
O sometimes the shadows are deep,
And rough seems the path to the goal,
And sorrows, sometimes how they sweep
Like tempests down over the soul.
Refrain
O then to the Rock let me fly
To the Rock that is higher than I
O then to the Rock let me fly
To the Rock that is higher than I!
O sometimes how long seems the day,
And sometimes how weary my feet;
But toiling in life's dusty way,
The Rock's blessèd shadow, how sweet!
Refrain
O near to the Rock let me keep
If blessings or sorrows prevail,
Or climbing the mountain way steep,
Or walking the shadowy vale.
Refrain
