He Hideth My Soul

  D                    G         D
A wonderful Saviour is Jesus, my Lord;
                       A7
A wonderful Saviour to me.
  D                      G
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock,
 D              A7          D
Where rivers of pleasures I see.


Chorus:

   A7                    D
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock
      A7                       D
That shadows a dry and thirsty land.
                         G
He hideth my life in the depths of His love
    D         A7             D
And covers me there with His hand;
              A7             D
And covers me there with His hand;


A wonderful saviour is Jesus my Lord;
He taketh my burden away.
He holdeth me up and I shall not be moved;
He giveth me strength for each day.


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!’


When clothed in His brightness transported I rise
To meet Him in the clouds of the sky,
His perfect salvation His wonderful love,
I’ll shout with the millions on high.
