God is my refuge,
a retreat for my soul
where life’s pressures
cannot take their toll.
His wings protect me,
a shelter they provide
whenever I am weary
a perfect place to hide.
God is my refuge,
a harbor to where I flee
whenever I’m tossed
upon life’s stormy sea.
When I need strength,
for the troubles I get in
I just turn to the Lord
my refuge from within.
God is my refuge,
a stronghold He is to me
an always present help . . .
I’ve found Him to be!
~~~~~~~~~~
“God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.”
“Whoever dwells in the shelter
of the Most High will rest in
the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the LORD,
‘He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.’”
