A Rock That Stands Forever NYLAND Author: Paul Gerhardt, 1607-1676 Musician: Finnish Folk Melody A Rock that stands forever Is Christ, my Righteousness! In Him I stand un-fearing, In everlasting bliss! Christ is my boast and glory— All wrath for me is o'er; The judgment of the sinner Affrighteth me no more. There is no condemnation, There is no hell for me! The torment and the fire— My eyes shall never see! For me there is no sentence, For me there is no sting, For Christ, my Lord, who saved me, Will shield me with His wing! No hunger, Lord, nor thirsting, No danger, fear, nor fight, No foe, no tribulation, No throne, nor pow'r, nor might, No height, no depth, no creature That has been or can be. Can pluck me from Thy bosom— Can sever me from Thee! My heart in joy upleapeth— Grief cannot linger there! O Jesus, Lord in glory, Thou art my sunshine fair! The Source of all my singing Is Jesus there above, The Sun that shines upon me Is Jesus and His Love!
