A wonderful Savior to me;
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock,
Where rivers of pleasure I see.
Chorus:
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.
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. (Chorus)
3 With numberless blessings each moment He crowns,
And, filled with His fullness divine,
I sing in my rapture, O glory to God
For such a Redeemer as mine. (Chorus)
4 When clothed with His brightness, transported I rise
To meet Him in clouds of the sky,
His perfect salvation, His wonderful love,
I’ll shout with the millions on high. (Chorus) Scripture: Exodus 33:22 Languages: English Tune Title: [A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord]
He Hideth My Soul
