Click to listen to the music of The Rock That Is Higher Than I and sing along!

Oh! sometimes the shadows are deep,
And rough seems the path to the goal,
And sorrows, sometimes how they sweep
Like tempests down over the soul.

Refrain:
Oh, then to the Rock let me fly
To the Rock that is higher than I
Oh, then to the Rock let me fly
To the Rock that is higher than I!

Oh! sometimes how long seems the day,
And sometimes how weary my feet!
But toiling in life's dusty way,
The Rock's blessed shadow, how sweet!

Refrain:
Oh, then to the Rock let me fly
To the Rock that is higher than I
Oh, then to the Rock let me fly
To the Rock that is higher than I!

Then near to the Rock let me keep
If blessings or sorrows prevail,
Or climbing the mountain way steep,
Or walking the shadowy vale.

Refrain:
Oh, then to the Rock let me fly
To the Rock that is higher than I
Oh, then to the Rock let me fly
To the Rock that is higher than I!
