MA'OZ TZUR

MAOZ TZUR YESHU'ATI 

Ma'oz tzur yeshu'ati,
Lecha na'eh leshabe-ach.

Tikon beit tefilati
Vesham todah nezabe-ach.

Le'eit tachin matbe-ach,
Mitzar ham'nabe-ach

Az egmor beshir mizmor
Chanukat hamizbe-ach

(repeat last two lines)


THE ROCK OF AGES

THE ROCK OF AGES IS MY SALVATION 

Rock of Ages, let our song
Praise thy saving power.

You amidst the raging foes
Were our sheltering tower.

Furious, they assailed us,
But your armour veiled us.

And thy word broke their sword
When our own strength failed us.

(repeat last two lines)

ROCK OF AGES

Rock of Ages let our song
Praise thy saving power

Thou amidst the raging foes
Was our sheltering tower.

Furious, they assailed us,
But thine armour veiled us.

And thy word broke their sword
When our own strength failed us.
