Hezekiah Walker's 'Lead Me To The Rock' is a gospel worship song that cries out to God for help and refuge in times of distress. The lyrics echo Psalm 61, expressing a heartfelt plea for God to hear and answer prayer, especially when the heart is overwhelmed. The song acknowledges God as a shelter and a strong tower from the enemy, and it asks to be led to the rock that is higher, symbolizing God's protection and stability. It is a simple, repetitive, and deeply spiritual song that conveys dependence on God's strength and guidance.

Hear my cry oh God
Hear my cry oh God
Attend unto my prayer
From the ends of the earth
From the ends of the earth
Will I cry unto thee
When my heart is overwhelmed
When my heart is overwhelmed
Lead me to that rock
Lead me to that rock
That is higher than I
Hear my cry oh God
Hear my cry oh God
Attend unto my prayer
From the ends of the earth
From the ends of the earth
Will I cry unto thee
When my heart is overwhelmed
When my heart is overwhelmed
Lead me to that rock
Lead me to that rock
That is higher than I
For Thou has been
For Thou has been
A shelter for me
A Mighty
Strong Tower
From the enemy
When my heart is overwhelmed
When my heart is overwhelmed
Lead me to that Rock
Lead me to that Rock
That is higher than I
Lead me to that rock
[repeat]
Lead me to that rock
That is higher than I
