Thou art the Rock everlasting,

Spiritual Rock cleft for me;

Drinking of Thee as the Spirit,

Thus I become one with Thee.

Thou art the Rock never shaken,

'Tis on this Rock we are built;

Joined unto Thee thru redemption,

Nothing can shake us thru guilt.

Thou art the Stone tried by many,

Precious to God, dear to us,

Thou art so sure and trustworthy,

Thy strength is so marvelous.

Thou art the Stone that is living,

Chosen of God, made our own;

So energetic and pow'rful,

With endless life to us known.

Thou art the Stone of Foundation

Laid by our God, safe and sure;

It is by this sure foundation

Safety fore'er we secure.

To us no other foundation

Of any kind man can lay;

Thou art the only foundation

Which we have now and for aye.

Lord, for God's spiritual building,

Thou art the Chief Cornerstone;

Both of the Jews and the Gentiles

By Thee are built into one.

Lord, Thou art also the Topstone,

Brought forth in measureless grace;

Thou art our cover and glory,

Moving our hearts in Thy praise.
