Oh my lovin' brother, when the world's on fire
Don't you want God's bosom, to be your pillow?
Hide me over, in the Rock of Ages
Rock of ages, cleft for me

Come, Thou Fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise

Oh my lovin' brother, when the world's on fire
Don't you want God's bosom, to be your pillow?
Hide me over, in the Rock of Ages
Rock of ages, cleft for me

Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God
He, to rescue me from danger
Interposed His precious blood

Oh my lovin' brother, when the world's on fire
Don't you want God's bosom, to be your pillow?
Hide me over, in the Rock of Ages
Rock of ages, cleft for me

O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I’m constrained to be!
Let Thy goodness, like a fetter,
Bind my wandering heart to Thee

Oh my lovin' brother, when the world's on fire
Don't you want God's bosom, to be your pillow?
Hide me over, in the Rock of Ages
Rock of ages, cleft for me

Oh my lovin' brother, when the world's on fire
Don't you want God's bosom, to be your pillow?
Hide me over, in the Rock of Ages
Rock of ages, cleft for me
