High on that lonesome road to heaven's blessed abode For many years I was burdened with care So often lightening flashed and raging billows dashed My sorrow then was so heavy to bear
But since my Jesus came I praise his holy name He sheds the light of his wonderful grace And every night and day to him I steal away I found a blessed hiding place
I found a hiding place a blessed hiding place I said a hiding a blessed hiding place There's glory in my soul my hallelujah rolls But since my Jesus came I'm under his control
He keeps me night and day He answers when I pray And from the raging storm to Him I steal away I hear those temptors knock I feel no temply shock Oh in the solid rock I found a hinding place
Just like a wandering Jew that had no place to choose Each day I had to keep travelin' on But now I've found the way that leads to endless days No more in darkness I wander alone When Satan would alarm I climb in God's strong arm And hide away in his loving embrace For in the solid rock the blessed solid rock I found a blessed hidin' place
