4 In this sweet Rock we Honey find, And living Waters flow; This Rock likewise does Jewels sweat, Here's golden Mines also.
5 This Rock is high, mount up with speed, You Canaan may espy; If you by Faith ascend this Rock, To you it will seem nigh.
6 Here let us dwell, the shadow's good For such who weary be; The hungry soul here may have food, And be from dangers free.
7 Then sing ye praise unto your Rock, No Rock is like to this; The Rock of our Salvation great A Sanctuary is.
8 Do not forsake your Rock be sure, O sing continually; Our dwelling place it is secure, Praise him that dwells on high.
