SOLID ROCK

I trod the ground of barren land

But all was mire and shifting sand

I cried, was heard the anguished plea

My Saviour came and rescued me

Chorus

Solid Rock unmoving ground

I stand on it now safe and sound

Solid firm o yes I’m sure

My soul on it is now secure 

The barren land was all but waste

All of its fruit was bad to taste

Bitter water quenched not my thirst

With emptiness my life was cursed

Chorus

Solid Rock unmoving ground

I stand on it now safe and sound

Solid firm o yes I’m sure

My soul on it is now secure

The sand it dragged, pulled down by mire

Saw the Rock to lift me higher

From yawning pit and darkened grave

The hand of Christ was there to save

Chorus

Solid Rock unmoving ground

I stand on it now safe and sound

Solid firm o yes I’m sure

My soul on it is now secure

Jesus Saviour my solid rock

Loving arms of His held in their lock

Earthquake, tidal wave, sinking sand

The Rock stays firm and here I stand

Chorus

Solid Rock unmoving ground

I stand on it now safe and sound

Solid firm o yes I’m sure

My soul on it is now secure
