[Verse 1]
In my despair, I stand on Your promise, I stand tall
Oh Lord, I call on You, my shield, my strength, my all
You hide me in times of trouble
I don’t fear attack, my enemies you humble
You protect me, you defend me, oh how I love you
I need you, keep me, help me, I can’t make it without you
Pre-Chorus]
You are my fortress, my refuge, my hope entire
My salvation, my high tower, lifting me higher
Your power and might, oh how great you are my Lord
You fight for me you are my sword
[Chorus]
I will love Thee, O Lord, forever I will praise
You are my rock, my salvation, through all my worst days
From the depths of my distress, I call upon Your name
Save me from my enemies, Lord, forever you heal my pain
Save me, Save me
Save me, save me
[Verse 2]
The floods may rise around me, the snares are set so tight
But Your Word is my lamp, you guide me through with your might
No darkness, no evil can endure
Your tender mercy is so pure
I love you, I will always stay here
Because with you I have nothing to fear
[Pre-Chorus]
You hear my cry, You see my tears, You lift me from the mire
My deliverer, my shield, You my Lord are my only desire
I don’t worry about what this life will bring
I’m safe and warm under your wings
[Chorus]
I will love Thee, O Lord, forever I will praise
You are my rock, my salvation, through all my worst days
From the depths of my distress, I call upon Your name
Save me from my enemies, Lord, forever you heal my pain
Save me, Save me
Save me, save me
[Bridge]
He heard my cry from His holy place
He rescued me from the snare of death
His mercy endures, His love never fails
In Him I find my hope, my strength, my shelter
[Outro]
So I will call upon the Lord, my strength, my all
Forever I will praise him forever and ever
[Final Chorus]
I will love Thee, O Lord, forever I will praise
You are my rock, my salvation, through all my worst days
From the depths of my distress, I call upon Your name
Save me from my enemies, Lord, forever you heal my pain
Save me, Save me
Save me, save me
Where can I go without you, what can I do if you leave
I will always trust you, I will always believe
There’s no way I’ll go from under protection, your power oh lord, your mighty power, save me Jesus, save me lord, I need you, I love you, please I don’t know where else to go but to your throne
You oh lord and you alone are worthy, no one else, only you Jesus, just save me…
