1In you, O Lord, do I take refuge;
let me never be put to shame!
2 In your righteousness deliver me and rescue me;
incline your ear to me, and save me!
3 Be to me a rock of refuge,
to which I may continually come;
you have given the command to save me,
for you are my rock and my fortress.
– Psalm 71:1-3 (ESV)
ROCK OF AGES
Rock of Ages, cleft for me
Let me hide myself in thee
Let the water and the blood
From thy wounded side which flowed
Be of sin the double cure
Save from wrath and make me pure
Let me hide myself in thee
Let the water and the blood
From thy wounded side which flowed
Be of sin the double cure
Save from wrath and make me pure
Not the labors of my hands
Can fulfill the law’s commands
Should my passion never fade
And my efforts all be weighed
All for sin could not atone
You must save and you alone
Can fulfill the law’s commands
Should my passion never fade
And my efforts all be weighed
All for sin could not atone
You must save and you alone
Rock of Ages
No one takes your life
Yet you died that I might live
Costly grace you freely give
No one takes your life
Yet you died that I might live
Costly grace you freely give
Rock of Ages
You have paid the price
You were cleft to cover me
Let my hide myself in thee
You have paid the price
You were cleft to cover me
Let my hide myself in thee
Nothing in my hand I bring
Simply to the cross I cling
Naked come to thee for dress
Helpless look to thee for grace
Wretched to the fount I fly
Wash me, Savior, or I die
Simply to the cross I cling
Naked come to thee for dress
Helpless look to thee for grace
Wretched to the fount I fly
Wash me, Savior, or I die
Rock of Ages
No one takes your life
Yet you died that I might live
Costly grace you freely give
No one takes your life
Yet you died that I might live
Costly grace you freely give
Rock of Ages
You have paid the price
You were cleft to cover me
Let my hide myself in thee
You have paid the price
You were cleft to cover me
Let my hide myself in thee
And while I draw my final breath
I’ll rest upon your grace
And when I close my eyes in death
I’ll wake to see your face
I’ll rest upon your grace
And when I close my eyes in death
I’ll wake to see your face
Rock of Ages
No one takes your life
Yet you died that I might live
Costly grace you freely give
No one takes your life
Yet you died that I might live
Costly grace you freely give
Rock of Ages
You have paid the price
You were cleft to cover me
Let my hide myself in thee
You have paid the price
You were cleft to cover me
Let my hide myself in thee
COME BEHOLD THE WONDROUS MYSTERY
Come behold the wondrous mystery
In the dawning of the King
He the theme of heaven’s praises
He the theme of heaven’s praises
Robed in frail humanity
In our longing, in our darkness
In our longing, in our darkness
Now the light of life has come
Look to Christ, who condescended
Look to Christ, who condescended
Took on flesh to ransom us
Come behold the wondrous mystery
He the perfect Son of Man
In His living, in His suffering,
In His living, in His suffering,
Never trace nor stain of sin
See the true and better Adam
See the true and better Adam
Come to save the hell-bound man
Christ the great and sure fulfillment
Christ the great and sure fulfillment
Of the law, in Him we stand
Come behold the wondrous mystery
Christ the Lord upon the tree
In the stead of ruined sinners
In the stead of ruined sinners
Hangs the Lamb in victory
See the price of our redemption
See the price of our redemption
See the Father’s plan unfold
Bringing many sons to glory
Bringing many sons to glory
Grace unmeasured, love untold
Come behold the wondrous mystery
Slain by death, the God of life
But no grave could e’er restrain Him
But no grave could e’er restrain Him
Praise the Lord, He is alive
What a foretaste of deliverance
What a foretaste of deliverance
How unwavering our hope
Christ in power resurrected
Christ in power resurrected
As we will be when He comes
What a foretaste of deliverance
What a foretaste of deliverance
How unwavering our hope
Christ in power resurrected
Christ in power resurrected
As we will be when He comes

BEFORE THE THRONE
Before the throne of God above
I have a strong and perfect plea
A great high Priest whose Name is Love
Who ever lives and pleads for me
I have a strong and perfect plea
A great high Priest whose Name is Love
Who ever lives and pleads for me
My name is graven on His hands
My name is written on His heart
I know that while in Heaven He stands
My name is written on His heart
I know that while in Heaven He stands
No tongue can bid me thence depart
No tongue can bid me thence depart
No tongue can bid me thence depart
When Satan tempts me to despair
And tells me of the guilt within
Upward I look and see Him there
Who made an end of all my sin
And tells me of the guilt within
Upward I look and see Him there
Who made an end of all my sin
Because the sinless Savior died
My sinful soul is counted free
For God the just is satisfied
To look on Him and pardon me
My sinful soul is counted free
For God the just is satisfied
To look on Him and pardon me
To look on Him and pardon me
Behold Him there the risen Lamb
My perfect spotless righteousness
The great unchangeable I AM
The King of glory and of grace
My perfect spotless righteousness
The great unchangeable I AM
The King of glory and of grace
The King of glory and of grace
The King of glory and of grace
The King of glory and of grace
One with Himself I cannot die
My soul is purchased by His blood
My life is hid with Christ on high
My soul is purchased by His blood
My life is hid with Christ on high
With Christ my Savior and my God
With Christ my Savior and my God
One with Himself I cannot die
My soul is purchased by His blood
My life is hid with Christ on high
My soul is purchased by His blood
My life is hid with Christ on high
With Christ my Savior and my God
With Christ my Savior and my God
