about
I wrote this song just a couple of weeks before wrapping up this EP. On the last day of recording we played through it once, just to capture it. This is completely raw and rough...but I've found this past year that every time I sit down at the keys, I'm drawn to this melody and these lyrics. So rough as it is, I'm adding it here. It's my favorite. He's my hiding place.
lyrics
Can You see me? Do You hear me cry? Do You know my fear?
I don’t feel You, I can’t hear Your voice, but I know You’re here
When the storm clouds o’er me roll
Jesus come and hold my soul
Be my shelter from the storm
Be my center, be my home
I’ll hide in You
When troubles all around me rage
You provide a dwelling place
I’ll hide in You
My Strong Refuge
When courage fails me, You lead through waters deep, I’m afraid to move
My heart falters, I’m at the end of me, there I’ll stand in You
When the storm clouds o’er me roll
Jesus come and hold my soul
I keep strugglin’ on in my own might
But this battle isn’t mine to fight
Jesus, help me to be still and know that You are God
