[Intro]

G C G D7 G

Rock of ages cleft for me let me hide myself in Thee

[Verse 1]

The circuit ridin' preacher used to ride across the land

G C G

With a rifle on his saddle and a Bible in his hand

He told the prairie people all about the promised land

G C D7 G

As he went ridin' singing down the trail

G C G D7

Lean-ing, lean-ing, Safe and se-cure from all a-larms,

G C G D7 G

Lean-ing, lean-ing, lean-ing on the ev-er-last-ing arms.

[Verse 2]

The circuit ridin' preacher travelled thru the mire and mud

C G

Told about the fiery furnace and of Noah and the flood

G Em

He preached the way to heaven was by water and the blood

Em C D7 G

As he went riding singing down the trail

There is power, power,

C G D7 G

Wonder-working power in the blood of the Lamb;

G G7

There is power, power,

C G D7 G

Wonder-working power in the precious blood of the Lamb.

[Interlude]

D7 G

[Spoken Interlude]

Ya know,

G D7

I heard a circuit-ridin' preacher say these words one day;

D7 G C

"Lord, I'd rather see a sermon than hear one any day.

C D7 G

"and I'd rather one walk with me than merely show the way.

G A7 C

"and the best of the preachers are those who live their creeds.

C A7 D7

"and to see their good in action, is what everybody needs.

D7 G C

"Ya know Lord, I could learn to do it, if you let me see it done.

C D7 G

"I can watch their hands in action, but their tongues are often to quick to run.

G D7

"And the sermons they deliver, may be very wise and true,

D7 G A7

"But I'd rather get my lessons, by watching what they do.

A7 C

"For I may misunderstand them, and the high advice they give,

C D7 G

"But there's no misunderstanding, when you see how people act and how they live."

[Verse 3]

His rifle may be rusted as it hangs upon the wall

G C G

And his Bible old and dusty may be never read at all

G Em

But until the resurrection when we hear the trumpet call

Em C D7 G

His truth is marching on.

Are you washed

G C

In the blood

C G D7

In the soul cleansing blood of the lamb

D7 G C

Are your garments spotless are they white as snow

C G D G

Are you washed in the blood of the lamb

[Outro]

G C G D7 G

Rock of ages cleft for me let me hide myself in Thee
