Convinced as a sinner,
to Jesus I come,
Informed by the gospel
for such there is room;
O’erwhelmed with sorrows
for sin I will cry,
Lead me to the rock
that is higher than I.
Lead me to the rock
that is higher than I.
When sorely afflicted
and ready to faint,
Before my Redeemer
I’ll spread my complaint;
’Mid storms and distresses
my soul shall rely
On Jesus, the rock
that is higher than I.
Lead me to the rock
that is higher than I.
’Tis there with the chosen of Jesus,
I long to dwell and eternally
join in the song,
And praising and blessings,
with angels on high,
It’s Jesus, the rock
that is higher than I.
Lead me to the rock
that is higher than I.
