our refuge – v4

our refuge
our safe place
in God alone
our calm fortress

our refuge
through every generation
one life in God
Creator of heaven and earth

our refuge
our safe harbor
safe from all harm
with God’s loving arms

our refuge
our place of peace
within the storms, our trials
within the love of God
within the sacrifice of Jesus
