friday favorites

friday favorite things | finding joy

I recently mentioned some music that the kids were enjoying, here. Well, I found these free downloads from Redemption Hill Church, via Tim Challies blog and we have all been enjoying these in the van as well. The other day, Meadow said, "Mommy, I didn't know this was another God song. I like it." Me too, Meadow. I like it too.

Rock of Ages by RedemptionHill

Rock of Ages, cleft for me
Let me hide myself in Thee
Let the water and the blood
From Thy wounded side which flowed
Be of sin the double cure
Save from wrath and make me pure

Not the labor 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 the 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

While I draw this fleeting breath
When mine eyes shall close in death
When I soar to worlds unknown
See thee on thy judgment throne
Rock of Ages, cleft for me
Let me hide myself in thee



Here are two other songs free to download as well:
O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing




What music are you listening to right now?




Happy Friday, y'all!

  2. I've started to really go back to some of the hymns that I grew up with. There is such profound truths in those words and I think that it's easy to overlook them. I love how so many of those hymns are being reused and resung (is that a word? grin)

    Thanks for the download links. I'm off to check them out.

    Blessings to you!
