Subject: RE: req/ADD: Lead Me to the Rock
Lyr. Add: LEAD ME TO THE ROCK Words S. Turner or Bennett, 1838. Music by Pocta, Wells and Murphy, 2006
1 Convinced as a sinner, to Jesus I come, Informed by the gospel, for such there is room; O'erwhelmed with sorrow, for sin will I cry; Lead me to the Rock that is higher than I. 2 Blessed be Jesus, for answering prayer, And raising my soul from the pit of despair; In ev'ry new trial, for Him will I cry, Lead me to the Rock that is higher than I. 3 When sorely afflicted, and ready to faint, Before my Redeemer, I'll spread my complaint; Midst storms and distresses, my soul shall rely. On Jesus the Rock that is higher than I.
Sheet music, "Taken from the Gadsby Hymnal # 1104." www.redmountainchurch.org/rmm/alb/rmmsheetmusic/LeadMeToTheRock_sheet.pdf
