1 Firm as a rock I will cling to my Savior! He is my hope where’er I may be; O what a joy and peace in believing There is a home preparing for me. Refrain: My longing eyes by faith behold, The gates of pearl, the streets of gold; With Christ my Lord I there shall be, And wear the crown laid up for me. 2 Firm as a rock I will cling to my Savior! Walking with Him no danger I fear; How can I want when He is my Shepherd, How can I fall when He is so near? [Refrain] 3 Firm as a rock I will cling to my Savior! Praising His word, adoring His love; Praising His name whose infinite mercy Leadeth my soul to mansions above. [Refrain] 4 Firm as a rock I will cling to my Savior! Nearer He brings my dwelling so fair; Angels of light are waving me onward; Glory to God, my treasure is there. [Refrain]
