1. A Rock that stands for e - ver Is Christ my right - eous - ness,
2. There is no con - dem - na - tion, There is no hell for me,
3. No an - gel and no de - vil, No throne, nor pow'r, nor might:
4. My soul with joy up - leap - eth, Grief can - not lin - ger there,

And there I stand un - fear - ing In e - ver - las - ting bliss;
The tor - ment and the fi - re Mine eyes shall ne - ver see;
No love, no tri - bu - la - tion, No dan - ger, fear, nor fight,
She sing - eth high in glo - ry A - mid the sun - shine fair;

No earth - ly thing is need - ful To this my life from heav'n,
For me there is no sen - tence, For me death has no sting,
No height, no depth, no crea - ture That has been, or can be,
The Sun that shines up - on me Is Je - sus and His love;

And nought of love is wor - thy Save that which Christ has giv'n.
Be - cause the Lord who loves me Shall shield me with his wing.
Can drive me from Thy bo - som Can se - ver me from Thee.
The foun - tain of my sing - ing Is deep in heav'n a - bove.
