Lyrics

Cleft of the Rock

He found me hiding deep within my shell
A fortress built on hurt, I thought no one could tell
I did not know Him, but I saw He knew me
I felt my shame so deeply, I wanted no one else to see
I could not face His eyes so I tried hard to run
His kindness overwhelmed me when I met the Son

Chorus
Now I’m living in the cleft of the rock that is my Savior
Surrounded and protected by the love of Jesus Christ
I am His for all time, no apologies for my crimes
I am born, born again, into freedom from my sin
How will you know, How can I show you
How will you know, how can I tell you?
Jesus is all you’ll ever need, need to know.

So many places in my heart to heal
What I can’t see there, Jesus will reveal
Want to be quiet, walk with grateful heart
Let Jesus do the talking, let His healing start

My old ways now are gone and I can start to live
My heart now knows the fullness of the Love that forgives.

(Chorus)
