The Shelter Where I Stay — Psalm 91

[Intro: pedal steel and fingerpicked guitar] [Verse 1: Bubba] I make my home beneath Your shade, My fortress when the daylight fades. You loose the hunter’s hidden snare, Your faithful truth surrounds me there. The night has terrors, noon has flame, But fear will not become my name. [Chorus: duet] Under Your wings is the shelter where I stay, My refuge through the night, my keeper through the day. I set my love upon You; I call upon Your name. When trouble finds the doorway, Your presence stays the same. [Verse 2: Darlene] Though thousands fall on either side, In You, Most High, I will abide. The wicked meet the deeds they’ve sown; You keep the dwelling called Your own. Your angels lift the stumbling feet, Past lion’s roar and serpent’s teeth. [Instrumental: steel answers piano, eight bars] [Bridge: Bubba, then Darlene harmony] The Psalm declares Your promise clear: You hear the ones who hold You dear. You answer when Your people call, And stand beside them through it all. Deliverance, honor, length of days, Salvation shown in all Your ways. [Final chorus: duet and gentle choir] Under Your wings is the shelter where I stay, My refuge through the night, my keeper through the day. I set my love upon You; I call upon Your name. When trouble finds the doorway, Your presence stays the same. [Outro: soft duet] My God, my refuge, here I’ll stay.
