A             D         A
[tab]              E       A
let me hide myself in Thee

        E     E7      A*
Let the water and the blood,

         E       E7         A*
from Thy wounded side which flowed

              D      A
Be of sin the double cure;

                    E    E7 A
save from wrath and make me pure.

A              D     A
Not the labors of my hands,

                E       A
can fulfill Thy law's demands

         E       E7      A
Could my zeal no respite know,

         E        E7   A
could my tears forever flow

                  D    A
All for sin could not atone;

                    E    E7 A
Thou must save, and Thou a  lone.

A             D      A
Nothing in my hand I bring,

              E       A
simply to the cross I cling

       E       E7       A
Naked, come to Thee for dress;

          E       E7       A
helpless, look to Thee for grace

               D        A
Foul, I to the fountain fly;

                 E  E7 A
wash me, Savior, or I  die.

A                 D        A
While I draw this fleeting breath,

                     E        A
when mine eyes shall close in death

       E       E7       A
When I soar to worlds unknown,

    E           E7       A
see Thee on Thy judgment throne

              D         A
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,

              E    E7 A
let me hide myself in Thee.
