A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord,
A wonderful Savior to me;
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock,
Where rivers of pleasure I see.
A wonderful Savior to me;
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock,
Where rivers of pleasure I see.
He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock
That shadows a dry, thirsty land;
He hideth my life in the depths of His love,
And covers me there with His hand,
And covers me there with His hand.
That shadows a dry, thirsty land;
He hideth my life in the depths of His love,
And covers me there with His hand,
And covers me there with His hand.

A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord,
He taketh my burden away;
He holdeth me up and I shall not be moved,
He giveth me strength as my day.
He taketh my burden away;
He holdeth me up and I shall not be moved,
He giveth me strength as my day.

With numberless blessings each moment He crowns,
And, filled with His fulness divine,
I sing in my rapture, oh, glory to God,
For such a Redeemer as mine!
And, filled with His fulness divine,
I sing in my rapture, oh, glory to God,
For such a Redeemer as mine!

When clothed in His brightness, transported I rise
To meet Him in clouds of the sky,
His perfect salvation, His wonderful love,
I’ll shout with the millions on high.
To meet Him in clouds of the sky,
His perfect salvation, His wonderful love,
I’ll shout with the millions on high.

How wonderful to see and read the lovely testimonies from so many different people, Christians, from different countries all over the world. It's so wonderful that the Lord had used this beautiful hymn/song to minister so lovingly to them. Truly - A wonderful Saviour is Jesus our Lord. Thank you.

20 years ago my husband left me. I spent sometime at home nearly 3000 miles away. I sat on the rocky beach one morning distressed and alone and from behind me I heard a rippling waterfall. I immediately thought of these words and at that moment my wonderful Saviour brought me out of my despair and heartache. I knew He would take care of me. The past 20 years have been very difficult at times, but I never forget this song. In these days I'm experiencing what most women go through and it has taken away my joy. I've again turned to this song and it gives me peace to know that my Wonderful Jesus is still as lovely and present as He ever was. And I give Him heartfelt thanks today.

He hides us in the cleft of the rock even when we are not aware. Such a powerful song that I love so dearly, whenever I medidate on it I remember all the goodness my dear Saviour has shown to me over the years, and all I can say is 'Oh what a wonderful saviour I have'. May our faith always remain steadfast knowing that our wonderful Saviour is always watching over us.

This song came to mind for morning worship and I wanted to hear the music, so I used the web. What a great blessing to read all the comments about what a wonderful Savior we have. May God bless all of you, may He add to our faith. Yes, He has a plan and He is coming to take us home!

We grow up singing with this song. Being a pilipino working here at ksa we really miss regular Sunday services here and hymn singing.

Ohh what a Wonderful Saviour, since Pastor Skeete held a week of prayer at our church, and the theme song was this song, I saw souls touched and changed and so this so reminds me of the Amazing Love that Christ has for us. Please ponder upon this Great Love and may it Bless you.

Jesus is just a wonderful Saviour. I have experienced Him hold my hand when inside the darkest valley where even the dearest of friends has failed to reach. Brethren trust Jesus He is the only friend who can not disappoint you. God bless you. God bless the composers & those who made it available online that I can meditate anytime and anywhere.

This hymn has been a favorite of mine for many years, but it came to mind more vividly when I sat at the opening of a cave on a mountain near Jerusalem, and enjoyed its protection from the hot sun. I also recalled how the Lord spared me certain death by making me miss my scheduled flight on Kenya Airways that crashed in Cameroon on May 4, 2007. Yes He hides my soul in the cleft of the rock, He provides us protection and traces our way in life.

This song puts my soul to peace. It gives me assurance of the love of our Lord Jesus Christ, it reminds me how He cares for me ("He hideth my life in the depth of His love") Oh what a wonderful song! It tells me all! Love it.
