When I wrote this post about God’s name being God my Rock, I remembered a song I enjoy called I go to the Rock.

I searched around to see if I could find it. I didn’t find the group I remember singing it.

I guess it was on the movie The Preacher’s Wife so I found Whitney Houston singing it.

My apologies, however, my toes were tapping and I enjoyed listening to it.

Here are the lyrics,

Where do I go?
When there’s nobody else to turn to
Who do I talk to?
When nobody wants to listen
Who do I lean on?

When there is no foundation stable
I go to the rock
I know he is able, I go to the rock

Chorus:
I go to the rock of my salvation
I go to the stone that the builders rejected
I run to the mountain
And the mountain stands by me
When the Earth all around me is sinking sand
On Christ the solid rock I stand
When I need a shelter I go to the rock

Where do I go, where do I go
When the storms of life are threatening
Who do I turn to when those winds of sorrow blow
And is there a refuge in the time of tribulation
Go to the rock, I know he is able
I go to the rock

Repeat Chorus (2X)

I go the rock when I need a friend
I can go to the rock
I go to the rock when I need a shelter
You can go to the rock
You can go to the rock
You can go to the rock
I can go
I go to the rock
I can go to the rock
I can go to the rock
I can go, I can go to the rock
I can go when I need some shelter
When I need a friend
I can go

And when the Earth around me is sinking sand
On Christ the solid rock I stand I can stand
When I need a friend
I go to the rock
I can go to the rock

 

I Go To The Rock by Whitney Houston
