strong tower

when i wander through the desert
and i'm longing for my home
all my dreams have gone astray
when i'm stranded in the valley
and i'm tired and all alone
it seems like i've lost my way

i go running to your mountain
where your mercy sets me free

you are my strong tower
shelter over me
beautiful and mighty
everlasting king
you are my strong tower
fortress when i'm weak
your name is true and holy
and your face is all i see

in the middle of my darkness
in the midst of all my fear
you're my refuge and my hope
when the storm of life is raging
and the thunder's all i hear
you speak softly to my soul
