Take Shelter
Song by Keith & Kristyn Getty and Skye Peterson
When the nations rage and death is at the doorWhen the wars are waged as they have been beforeThere’s a refuge that I run toA respite from my fearNothing in this world can harm me here
When my song of hope is swallowed by the painAs the weariness of grief floods in againWill you find me in the valley?Oh, hear my helpless cryHold me as a mother holds her child
And I’ll take shelterTake shelterIn the loving arms of GodAnd I will take shelterTake shelterIn the loving arms of God
When a greater war had torn apart my soulAnd the iron hold of sin would not let goAll of heaven stormed the darknessIn the power of the crossI’m freed beneath the banner of His love
And I’ll take shelterTake shelterIn the loving arms of GodAnd I will take shelterTake shelterIn the loving arms of God
When the labors of this fleeting life are doneAs the shadows fall, we’ll see the lights of homeAnd then all our prayers and troubles will be stories of the pastSafe within His gates, we’ll find our rest
And I’ll take shelterTake shelterIn the loving arms of GodAnd I will take shelterTake shelterIn the loving arms of God
Take shelterI’ll take shelterIn the loving arms of GodAnd I will take shelterTake shelterIn the loving arms of God
