It seems we Nigerian catholics love this song. I learnt it from my father as a chorister back in the 70's and till date I just can't stop singing it especially the chorus. What an inspirational song. Thanks to the composer(s) and blessings to all the singers. Peace and may you remain firm as the tree's root that clutches unto Christ.
Christ is my rock my refuge my stronghold
I also love this hymn a lot.
One of my favourite in Regina Mundi Catholic Church in Lagos Nigeria in the 80s.
Christ remains my Rock, my Refuge and my Stronghold.
I won't let go off Him.

I didn't realise this hymn was that popular in Nigeria until now. I went through today's Gospel reading and the song just came into my mind and I wante to remember all the lyrics only to be directed to this site through goggle search.
Just like Lara, this is a reminder of Regina Mundi in the 80s, St. Dominics (Yaba) and St. Timothy's (Ojodu). The song stays fresh each passing day

'CHRIST IS MY ROCK
Chorus:
Christ is my Rock, my Refuge, my Stronghold,
Firm as the tree's root that clutches the land.
He who has faith builds without worry,
Not like the man who builds upon sand.
I set my house on a solid foundation:
Christ is my rock,
the root of my soul's recreation.
1. I know a man who loved to live free,
He pitched his tent by the side of the sea.
It stood near the surf and
was washed bx the spray,
Till one day a wave came and washed it away.
2. I know a man who loved to live high,
He built his castle near up to the sky.
Through summer and spring it stood pretty well,
When winter winds whistled it toppled and fell.
3. I know a man, a cool one to know,
He built his house out of ice and of snow.
In chill isolation his night work was done,
But it melted away with the warm morning sun.
4. I know a man who built out of straw,
The flimsiest fellow that I ever saw.
One day a spark set it to flame,
And nothing was left to remember his name.'
