Song and Chorus: He Hideth My Soul
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock
That shadows a dry, thirsty land;
He hideth my life in the depths of His love,
And covers me there with His hand,
And covers me there with His hand.
Verses:
1. A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord,
A wonderful Savior to me;
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock,
Where rivers of pleasure I see.
2. A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord;
He taketh my burden away;
He holdeth me up, and I shall not be moved;
He giveth me strength as my day.
God Protects His People.
