Shelter

When no one seems to know
The troubles of my soul
And everyone just walks away

When trouble seems to be
Overcoming me
And I’m driven to my knees

When all of life comes crashing down
My hope and peace is on the ground
You are my shelter Lord

You’re my shelter from the storm
You’re my shelter from the rain
You’re my shelter from the loneliness and pain
You’re my shelter from the confusion
You’re my shelter from abuse
You’re my shelter from the trials of life

When onward I must go
Down the long and lonely road
I’m glade I have one friend
You’ve known me from before
You’ve known me all along
You’ll stay with me until the end

When all of life comes crashing down
My hope and peace is on the ground
You are my shelter Lord
