Gillian Welch - Rock Of Ages Lyrics
Round, round, I wanna go round
wanna see the rock of ages
when my body gives out
gonna read the final pages
she told me I should meet her
Someday streets of gold
Gonna guide me on to greet her
Once my father sat down
and told me of the prophets
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
they're gone but not forgotten
Round, round, I wanna go round
til my body gives out
gonna read the gospel pages
Moses heard a voice
it called him up the mountain
forty days had set
when Moses come a shoutin'
Round, round, I wanna go round
wanna see the rock of ages
when my body gives out
gonna read the final pages
Round, round, I wanna go round
wanna see the rock of ages
til my body gives out
gonna read the gospel pages
Round, round, I wanna go round
wanna see the rock of ages
when my body gives out
gonna read the final pages

Gillian Welch Rock Of Ages Comments
I don't believe in God as most people do but I do there is God in all of us. Gillian Welch, Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss and even Lucinda Williams can make me feel more Godlike than any organized religion. It's a matter of heart and soul. When we feel something inside is when there's comfort in the old world. This song does that to me.
awesome. This was wonderful. Thank you.
@resistnine You may not be as much of an atheist as you think. The Holy Spirit works that way. Listen not with your ears as much as with your soul. Peace.
The devil is happy to hear men say they are atheists.
I'm Atheist and I love this song. I can't get out of my head.
