Shelter
Jaci Velasquez
How the mind can wander, how the heart can stray
Suddenly you're on the edge of darkness
How it makes me ponder, how I'm led away
Down a path that leaves me worn and tarnished
Battling with the will within
I have known all along that I should lean on You
'Cause I'm never strong enough to fight it on my own
Shelter me, the ways of the world are at my feet
Shelter me from the desires that deceive
You are the fortress I need, shelter me
Well, how the mind can alter, how the heart can change
When you set your sights on holiness
And though at times you falter, it's the only way
You can find a place of peace to rest
Safe from danger surrounding me
Safe from looming defeat when temptation is at my door
Lord, I need a harbor, be my soul's retreat
Shelter me, the ways of the world are at my feet
Shelter me from the desires that deceive
You are the fortress I need, shelter me, yeah
You will never leave me stranded, fending for myself
When the enemy advances, You are there to help
Standing in the gap for me whenever I grow weak
You are my deliverer, the refuge that I seek
I should lean on You (yeah, oh)
'Cause I'm never strong enough to fight it on my own
Shelter me, the ways of the world are at my feet
Shelter me from the desires that deceive
Oh, You are the fortress I need, shelter me
Shelter me, shelter me, shelter
