You Are My Shelter

Intro

Ooh—ooh, hallelujah (yeah)

Oh-oh, hallelujah (amen)

Verse

On the morning when my map is torn

You paint the road with steady hands

When my voice runs out of words to call

Your name comes easy, understands

You meet me at the river bend, You hold the tired in my chest

You set the compass back to truth, You pull my burdens from my breath

Pre-chorus

I was walking on my own

I was weighing every stone

Then You came and laid Your promise down

You came and laid Your promise down (laid it down)

Chorus

You are my shelter, You are my song (yeah)

You are my shelter, You are my song

Hallelujah — You carry me along (oh-oh)

Hallelujah — You carry me along

You are my shelter, You are my song

You are my shelter, You are my song

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah (amen)

Verse

When the sky won't answer why, You speak in patient light

When the hands of doubt take hold, You show the way to fight

You know the ways I've wandered off, You know the names I fear

You find the pieces I threw out — You bring the whole thing near

Pre-chorus

I was losing all my ground

I was silent, I was bound

Then You came and opened up a door

You came and opened up a door (open wide)

Chorus

You are my shelter, You are my song (oh-oh)

You are my shelter, You are my song

Hallelujah — You carry me along (come on, come on)

Hallelujah — You carry me along

You are my shelter, You are my song

You are my shelter, You are my song

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah (yeah)

Bridge

I lay down every worry, I lay down every claim

I lift my hands and whisper out Your name (Your name)

You never leave the night alone, You turn the fear to flame

All my scattered pictures fall back into frame (fall back in)

Chorus

You are my shelter, You are my song (you are)

You are my shelter, You are my song

Hallelujah — You carry me along (oh-oh, oh-oh)

Hallelujah — You carry me along

You are my shelter, You are my song

You are my shelter, You are my song

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah (amen, amen)
