Firmly stand for God, in the world’s mad strife,
Tho’ the bleak winds roar, and the waves beat high;
’Tis the Rock alone giveth strength and life,
When the hosts of sin are nigh.

Refrain

Let us stand on the Rock,
Firmly stand on the Rock, on the Rock of Christ alone;
If the strife we en­dure, we shall stand se­cure,
’Mid the throng who sur­round the throne.

Firmly stand for right, with a mo­tive pure,
With a true heart bold, and a faith e’er strong;
’Tis the Rock alone giv­eth tri­umph sure,
O’er the world’s ar­ray of wrong.

Refrain

Firmly stand for truth, it will serve you best;
Tho’ it wait­eth long, it is sure at last;
’Tis the Rock alone giv­eth peace and rest,
When the storms of life are past.
