Rock Of Ages (Gray)

Rock of Ages
Words: Augustus Toplady (Chorus by Cameron Gray); Music: Cameron Gray. ©2005 Rough Harbor Music.

Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee;
Let the water and the blood
From Thy riven side which flowed,
Be for sin the double cure,
Cleanse me from its guilt and power.

Not the labors of my hands
Can fulfill Thy law’s demands;
Could my zeal no respite know,
Could my tears forever flow,
All for sin could not atone;
Thou must save, and Thou alone

Rock of Ages, grace enough.

Nothing in my hand I bring,
Simply to Thy cross I cling;
Naked come to Thee for dress,
Helpless look to Thee for grace;
Foul I to the fountain fly,
Wash me, Savior, or I die.

Come Ye Sinners
Words: Joseph Hart, 1759. Music: Cameron Gray, 2005
©2005 Rough Harbor Music.

Come, ye sinners, poor and wretched,
Weak and wounded, sick and sore;
Jesus, ready, stands to save you,
Full of pity joined with power.
He is able, He is able;
He is willing; doubt no more.

Come ye needy, come, and welcome,
God’s free bounty glorify;
True belief and true repentance,
Every grace that brings you nigh.
Without money, without money
Come to Jesus Christ and buy.

Come, ye weary, heavy laden,
Bruised and broken by the fall;
If you tarry ’til you’re better,
You will never come at all.
Not the righteous, not the righteous;
Sinners Jesus came to call.

Let not conscience make you linger,
Nor of fitness fondly dream;
All the fitness He requireth
Is to feel your need of Him.
This He gives you, this He gives you,
‘Tis the Spirit’s rising beam.

Lo! The Incarnate God, ascended;
Pleads the merit of His blood.
Venture on Him; venture wholly,
Let no other trust intrude.
None but Jesus, none but Jesus
Can do helpless sinners good.

Come, ye sinners, poor and wretched,
Weak and wounded sick and sore.

Come, Believers
Words & Music: Cameron Gray, 2005. ©2005 Rough Harbor Music

O come, believers, sing the praises
Of my everlasting Lord
O come and hymn my holy Jesus
Who has washed me in His blood
Wretch, and to every evil prone,
In all my transgressions dead,
Yet, to claim me for His own,
In my place my Savior bled.

He takes the wounded to His healing,
His mercy spilled is not in vain.
Salvation poured out, flowing freely for
Helpless and needy, blind and lame.
His depth of grace no soul can sound,
O Lamb of God, for sinners slain!
That cleansing flood’s sweet source is found
At fountains flowing from His veins.

CHORUS:
O—Come, believers!
O—Sing His praise.
O—Come, believers!

Abounding Grace, O Love Redeeming,
Unchain my tongue to sing Thy praise!
I’ll join the songs of saints beseeching:
“O speed the day we see Thy face!”
In this my soul’s sole consolation;
In this my hope, my joy abide:
What shall I trust for my salvation?
None but Christ and Him crucified.
(Repeat Chorus)

O come, believers, sing the praises
Of my everlasting Lord.

Notes
Wrote this in late 2005, when I first started reading the Gadsby Hymnal. Recorded sometime early 2006 in my bedroom.

Be Thou My Vision
Words: Attributed to Dallan Forgaill, 8th Century. Music: Irish folk melody, arr. by Cameron Gray, 2008. ©2008 Rough Harbor Music

Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.

Be Thou my wisdom, and Thou my true Word
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord
Thou my great Father, and I Thy true son,
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.

CHORUS:
O Lord of my heart
Naught be all else to me save that Thou art
O Lord of my heart
Be Thou my vision, Be thou my vision

Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,
Thou mine inheritance, now and always:
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High king of heaven, my treasure Thou art.

CHORUS 2:
O Lord of my heart
High King of Heaven, my treasure Thou art
O Lord of my heart
Be Thou my vision, Be thou my vision

High king of heaven, my victory won,
May I reach heaven’s joys, O bright heaven’s Son!
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my vision, O ruler of all.

Psalm 31
©2006 Rough Harbor Music. Words & Music: Cameron Gray, 2006.

In You, O Lord, have I put my trust,
Let me be not ashamed, let me be not ashamed.
Deliver me in Your righteousness,
O revive me once again, revive me once again.

All day let me sing of Thy salvation,
O my Rock and my Foundation,
Be my refuge.
All day, resting in Your righteousness,
For my hope is in Your grace
And I do not know it’s limit.

In You, O Lord, have I put my trust,
Be not far from me, be not far from me.
Deliver me in Your righteousness,
I will praise You more and more, praise You more and more
