A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord,
A wonderful Savior to me;
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock,
Where rivers of pleasure I see.
A wonderful Savior to me;
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock,
Where rivers of pleasure I see.
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock
That shadows a dry, thirsty land;
He hideth my life in the depths of His love,
And covers me there with His hand,
And covers me there with His hand.
That shadows a dry, thirsty land;
He hideth my life in the depths of His love,
And covers me there with His hand,
And covers me there with His hand.

A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord,
He taketh my burden away;
He holdeth me up and I shall not be moved,
He giveth me strength as my day.
He taketh my burden away;
He holdeth me up and I shall not be moved,
He giveth me strength as my day.

With numberless blessings each moment He crowns,
And, filled with His fulness divine,
I sing in my rapture, oh, glory to God,
For such a Redeemer as mine!
And, filled with His fulness divine,
I sing in my rapture, oh, glory to God,
For such a Redeemer as mine!

When clothed in His brightness, transported I rise
To meet Him in clouds of the sky,
His perfect salvation, His wonderful love,
I’ll shout with the millions on high.
To meet Him in clouds of the sky,
His perfect salvation, His wonderful love,
I’ll shout with the millions on high.

This song reminds me of my mother who passed away 2 years ago next month in July. Every time we sing it in church I get teary. I look forward to the day Jesus comes and pray we meet on that day. AMEN.

God touched my heart of this song. According to my doctor my days are numbered. I'm sure I will be with Him when I will be called. Still I'm hoping for a miracle. He is my great physician. He is great!!!

What a beautiful song. I have only recently heard it and I listen to it over and over and over. What joy my Savior brings to my heart. What joy to know He is mine and I am His. Praise God for such a beautiful hymn!

The words are timelessly true. In these days when the world can no longer tell the way forward, we have these great writers of history to remind us of the authentic peace, love and joy that comes from a true and unalloyed relationship with Jesus! Its a great blessing!

This is one of my favorite hymns, though I love them all because of the love Of God through Christ our Saviour! I get tears in my eyes every time I listen because God is so good to love me, who does not deserve it, but for His cleansing blood!!! Glory to GOD!!

I love this song because God has already given me the gift of salvation. Am so sure under what may He covers me there with His hand. He did the same with Moses in Exodus 33:22.

I love this song. I've been a Christian for now a year (I'm 18), my life has been filled with eternal joy and this song reminds me of why.

I'm on my 25th year of following the Lord and this song somehow summarizes my wonderful walk with Him so far. God is truly wonderful.

This hymn became very real to me upon learning I had cancer.

This hymn was my oldest daughter's favorite that we sang around campfires and at home. It was fitting to send her off to meet her Lord at the tender age of 30 recently. There was not a dry eye at her service. Indeed my wife and I look forward to meeting her in glory.
