Rock on Which I Stand

Verse

Jesus is the rock on which I stand

When the world keeps slippin’ through my hands

All the others fade like drifting sand

But Your love, Lord, is my promised land

Life gets heavy, I can feel the strain

Through the storm and through the pouring rain

Still I call Your holy name

And I know I’m not the same

Pre-chorus

Oh, when the night is closin’ in

And I don’t know where I’ve been

Chorus

You’re the rock, You’re the reason I stand

Holdin’ my heart in Your hands

When I fall, You understand

Lift me up again

You’re the light, shinin’ out in the dark

Every beat of my heart

From the end to the start

You’re the rock on which I stand

Verse

When it feels like all is stripped away

Still my faith will never drift or sway

Every cross I bear each day

Is the love You gave to light my way

Nails that changed my destiny

Opened up eternity

I may stumble, I may fall

But I hear Your gentle call

Pre-chorus

And I rise again in You

Every time You pull me through

Chorus

You’re the rock, You’re the reason I stand

Holdin’ my heart in Your hands

When I fall, You understand

Lift me up again

You’re the light, shinin’ out in the dark

Every beat of my heart

From the end to the start

You’re the rock on which I stand

Bridge

Ahhh—Rock of ages, strong and true

Every road leads me to You

Yesterday and still today

You’re the truth, the life, the way

Chorus

You’re the rock, You’re the reason I stand

Holdin’ my soul in Your hands

When I’m weak, You make me strong

Carry me along

And when my time is closin’ in

I’ll be singin’ once again

Hallelujah, Amen—

For the rock on which I stand
