Rock of Ages Creg dy Eashyn MS 01419A
(Yn Aght screeu Augustus Toplady eh:) (Screeu cadjinit)
Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Creg dy eashyn son aym brish
Let me hide myself in Thee; Lhig dou aynyds follagh mish
Let the water and the blood, Lhig da’n ushtey as yn uill
From Thy riven side which flowed, Voish dy lhiattee vroghit geill
Be of sin the double cure, Veih dagh peccah ’ yannoo slane
Cleanse me from its guilt and power. Mee hauaill as jannoo slane
(Çhyndaays:) Voddin heayney laa as oie
I could pray day and night Voddin lesh lane jeeanid guee
I could with beseech with full zeal Shen cha voddagh lhiassagh nish
That which cannot improve now She Oo hene shegin sauail mish
It is Yourself that must save me Fegooish gioot sy theihll shoh wass
Without a gift in this world down below Ynrick cummal gys dty chrosh
Only holding to your cross
(Yn Aght screeu Augustus Toplady eh:)
Not the labour 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.
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, Saviour, or I die!
While I draw this fleeting breath, Chouds veeym tayrn yn ennal faase
When mine eyes shall close in death, As my hooillyn jeigh ayns baase
When I soar to worlds unknown, Troggal er gys seihll gyn oayl
See Thee on Thy judgement throne, Cur my-ner Oo er dty stoyl
Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Creg dy eashyn son aym brisht
Let me hide myself in Thee Lhig dou aynyds follagh mish
