My Rock and My Fortress (2 Samuel 22)

[Intro] [acoustic piano arpeggios, soft string pad] [Verse 1] [tenor male vocals] When my troubles bring me low And I know not where to go When darkness gathers thick [acoustic guitar enters] And my heart is worn and weak I will remember in whom I trust My God who's faithful and just [Chorus] I'll sing praises like David of old Who trusted the Lord alone The Lord is my rock [bass and drums enter] And my fortress, my deliverer In Him I will trust Yes, in Him will I trust He is my shield and the horn of my salvation He's my high tower and my refuge, my savior [Verse 2] I will call on the Lord [electric guitar volume swells] Yes, I will call on the Lord Who is worthy to be praised So shall I be saved from the darkest place From the snare the darkness made And from the enemies so bring me to my knees [Bridge] In my distress I called the Lord Fell on my knees with my head bowed Let my heart rejoice The Lord heard my voice, He parted the heavens He came down from above He dispelled the darkness and filled me with His love [Chorus 2] [full band intensity increases, heavy cymbal crashes] Let my heart rejoice for the Lord heard my voice He reached down from heaven and drew me from the sea He broke the chains around me and set my spirit free He stays with me through the night And sends forth His wondrous light [Outro] The Lord is my rock and my fortress, my deliverer In Him I will trust Yes, in Him will I trust He is my shield and the horn of my salvation He's my high tower and my refuge, my savior He's my high tower and my refuge, my savior [drums and bass fade out] [piano arpeggios continue to end]
