Psalm 31:2-3<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Bow down Your ear to me, deliver me speedily; be my rock of refuge, a fortress of defense to save me. For You are my rock and my fortress; therefore, for Your name’s sake, lead me and guide me.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Many of us have experienced crushing losses in our life. Who is to say whether the loss of one thing is more burdensome than another. All too often we minimize what others are suffering and focus only on our own struggles.<\/p>\n

The hymn, “Hiding In Thee” was written by William Cushing in 1876 following the death of his dear wife at an early age. He was in poor health himself and had been forced to retire from the ministry. It seemed as if his world was crashing down upon him.<\/p>\n

At the urging of Ira Sankey, an active musician with D. L. Moody, he was persuaded to write a hymn from the depths of his ordeal. As we read the words of this beloved hymn we can almost feel the cry of his heart as a prayer.<\/p>\n

“<\/strong><\/em>Hiding in Thee<\/strong><\/em><\/a>“<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

O safe to the Rock that is higher than I,
\nMy soul in its conflicts and sorrows would fly;
\nSo sinful, so weary, Thine, Thine, would I be;
\nThou blest “Rock of Ages,” I’m hiding in Thee.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Hiding in Thee, hiding in Thee,
\nThou blest “Rock of Ages,” I’m hiding in Thee.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>In the calm of the noontide, in sorrow’s lone hour,
\nIn times when temptation casts o’er me its power,
\nIn the tempests of life, on its wide, heaving sea,
\nThou blest “Rock of Ages,” I’m hiding in Thee.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0H<\/em>iding in Thee, hiding in Thee,
\nThou blest “Rock of Ages,” I’m hiding in Thee.<\/em><\/p>\n

How oft in the conflict, when pressed by the foe,
\nI have fled to my refuge and breathed out my woe;
\nHow often, when trials like sea billows roll,
\nHave I hidden in Thee, O Thou Rock of my soul.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Hiding in Thee, hiding in Thee,
\nThou blest “Rock of Ages,” I’m hiding in Thee.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Whatever you may be going through at this very moment, I want you to know that you can flee to our “Blest Rock of Ages” and hide in Him!<\/p>\n
