Lord, You Are My Refuge

When fear surrounds my life
and the night seems like it won’t end,
I lift my eyes up to heaven
and Your voice lifts me again.

You are my eternal rock,
my shield in every storm,
though the whole earth may be shaken
I know You are always with me.

“Protect me, O my God, in You I take refuge,
You are my strength, my shield, my salvation.
No one can defeat the one who trusts in Your name,
for Your power is eternal, Lord.

My refuge, my fortress,
my God in whom I will always trust.
Though mountains and oceans may rise,
Your mighty hand will sustain me.”

The Lord is my light and my path,
whom then shall I fear?
If the world rises up against me,
Your love draws me near.

Under the shadow of the Most High
my soul rests in peace,
for Your Spirit covers me
and Your truth will keep me.

“Protect me, O my God, in You I take refuge,
You are my strength, my shield, my salvation.
No one can defeat the one who trusts in Your name,
for Your power is eternal, Lord.

My refuge, my fortress,
my God in whom I will always trust.
Though mountains and oceans may rise,
Your mighty hand will sustain me.”


When I walk through the desert
and weariness tries to win,
Your Word ignites my soul
and teaches me to stand firm.

Your name is a mighty tower
where the righteous find their peace,
and in the middle of every battle
Your victory will be seen.

“Protect me, O my God, in You I take refuge,
You are my strength, my shield, my salvation.
Your power breaks chains and conquers darkness,
glory and honor forever to the Lord.

My refuge, my fortress,
my God in whom I will always trust.
Today I lift my voice and proclaim Your name,
Mighty King, forever Amen.

And the Holy Spirit whispers to my soul:

“Do not be afraid, believe in God’s mercy.
His love is greater than all your faults,
His grace lifts up the one who trusts in Him.

If you fall, rise again and return to His house,
His forgiveness will always be open.
For the Father receives the one who repents
and embraces them with arms of love.”

Protect me, O my God, in You I take refuge,
You are my strength, my shield, my salvation.
No one can defeat the one who trusts in Your name,
for Your power is eternal, Lord.

My refuge, my fortress,
my God in whom I will always trust.
Though mountains and oceans may rise,
Your mighty hand will sustain me.
