Verse 1
When the world feels like a mountain
And the weight is hard to bear,
When the road gets lost in shadows
And I’m searching everywhere,
I don’t need you to move the mountain,
I don’t need you to clear the sky,
Just be the light beside me
When I’m too tired to try.
Pre-Chorus
You don’t have to fix the broken,
You don’t have to make it right,
Just your hand inside of mine
Makes the darkness feel less like night.
Chorus
You’re the shelter in my storm,
The harbor when the waves get high,
The steady ground beneath my feet
When I’m afraid I’m gonna fall apart.
You’re the quiet in the thunder,
The warmth when the world turns cold,
I don’t need you to save me—
Just stay beside me and hold me close.
Verse 2
When my shoulders start to bend
From the weight of yesterday,
You’re the river running through me,
Washing all the fear away.
One word from you is like a sunrise
Breaking through a cloudy sky,
And somehow I can breathe again
Just knowing you’re nearby.
Pre-Chorus
You don’t have to find the answers,
You don’t have to know the way,
Sometimes love is simply saying,
“I’m right here, and I will stay.”
Chorus
You’re the shelter in my storm,
The harbor when the waves get high,
The steady ground beneath my feet
When I’m afraid I’m gonna fall apart.
You’re the quiet in the thunder,
The warmth when the world turns cold,
I don’t need you to save me—
Just stay beside me and hold me close.
Bridge
And when I’m running out of strength,
Let me rest beneath your sky.
I’ll lay my burdens at your feet
And let your heartbeat answer mine.
Maybe comfort isn’t something
That you find along the way—
Maybe comfort is a person
Who simply chooses to stay.
Final Chorus
You’re the shelter in my storm,
My harbor when the waves get high,
The sunrise after midnight,
The reason I can face the night.
You’re the calm inside the chaos,
The place my weary heart calls home,
I don’t need you to fix my world—
Your presence tells me I’m not alone.
Outro
So when life puts the weight upon me,
And I’m too tired to carry on,
I’ll stay close beneath your shelter
Until the storm is gone.
You don’t have to say forever,
You don’t have to have the answers—
Just stay beside me…
Because your presence
Is the comfort I need most.
