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.
