Lyrics

Praise the Rock of our sal­va­tion!
Praise the mighty God above!
Come before His sacred presence
With a grateful song of love.

Refrain

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
He is God, and He alone.
Wake the song of adoration—
Come with joy before His throne!

Praise the Rock of our sal­va­tion!
Praise the Fa­ther’s boundless love!
Praise the Lamb, our expiation!
Praise the Spi­rit from above!

Refrain

Praise the Rock of our sal­va­tion!
Jesus’ blood avails for sin;
Jesus, at the door of mercy,
Waits to let the wanderer in.

Refrain

Praise the Rock of our sal­va­tion!
Catch from yonder radiant clime
Strains by ev­er­last­ing ages,
Echoed back in tones sublime.
