[Intro]

B B B B

[Verse 1]

B F# B F#sus4 E F#sus4 F#

Rock of a-ges, cleft for me.

B F# B F#sus4 E F#sus4

Hide me now, my refuge be.

G#m F# E

Let the water and the blood

G#m F# B/D# E

From your wounded side which flowed,

G#m F# B/D# E

Be for sin the double cure.

B F#sus4 G#m F# E G#m F# E

Cleanse me from its guilt and power.

[Verse 2]

B F# B F#sus4 E F#sus4 F#

Not the labors of my hands

B F# B F#sus4 E F#sus4

Can fulfill your law’s demands.

G#m F# E

Could my zeal no respite know,

G#m F# B/D# E

Could my tears forever flow,

G#m F# B/D# E

All for sin could not atone;

B F#sus4 G#m F# E G#m F# E

You must save, and You alone.

[Verse 3]

B F# B F#sus4 E F#sus4 F#

Nothing in my hand I bring,

B F# B F#sus4 E F#sus4

Simply to your cross I cling;

G#m F# E

Naked come to You for dress;

G#m F# B/D# E

Helpless look to You for grace,

G#m F# B/D# E

Stained by sin to You I cry.

B F#sus4 G#m F# E G#m F# E

Wash me, Savior or I die.

[Verse 4]

B F# B F#sus4 E F#sus4 F#

While I draw this fleeting breath;

B F# B F#sus4 E F#sus4

When my eyelids close in death;

G#m F# E

When I soar through realms unknown,

G#m F# B/D# E

Bow before the judgment throne,

G#m F# B/D# E

Hide me now my refuge be;

B F#sus4 G#m F# E G#m F# E

Rock of ages, cleft for me.
