Always wanted write one of those "minor walk-down" kind of songs. My father-in-law says this one sounds like it could be from the 70's.

A song that portrays the crucifixion as a very personal event. A reminder for Believers that there is nothing in this world to cling to but Jesus, the steadfastness of the hope we have.

Lyrics
Jesus Rock of my salvation, You're the one that I run to.
Jesus Rock of my salvation, nothing in this world to hang on to.
I've read that you lived a perfect life.
I 've read that you were tempted and tried.
I've read that you cried blood in the night.
I've read that you were crucified.
Jesus Rock of my salvation, You're the one that I run to.
Jesus Rock of my salvation, nothing in this world to hang on to.
I know that you looked at my life.
I know you were thinking about me when you died.
I know that you formed me in my momma's womb.
And I know that you came out of your tomb!
Jesus Rock of my salvation, You're the one that I run to.
Jesus Rock of my salvation, nothing in this world,
nothing in this world, nothing in this world ...to hang on to.
AD LIB -- ON THE RECORDING:
I can't hang onto nothing else. I can't make it by myself.
I can't make it... I can't make it without You, oh Lord.
Without You. Without You. Yeah. Yeah.
