[Verse 1] When the ground gives way beneath my feet And the road turns hard and long I lift my eyes beyond the fear To the One who makes me strong [Pre-Chorus] Your counsel shows the better path Your patient hand can see So I will follow where You lead And trust what You teach me [Chorus] You are my strong Rock, my refuge Firm when every wall gives way You do not change, You do not fail You hold me through the day You are my strong Rock, my refuge In Your promises I stand Jehovah, calm my frightened heart And keep me in Your hand [Verse 2] When others turn and plans fall through Your purpose still remains Your qualities are steady, Lord Your word outlasts the change [Pre-Chorus] Each time I see Your help arrive My confidence grows deep No trial is too severe for You No promise You won't keep [Chorus] You are my strong Rock, my refuge Firm when every wall gives way You do not change, You do not fail You hold me through the day You are my strong Rock, my refuge In Your promises I stand Jehovah, calm my frightened heart And keep me in Your hand [Instrumental Interlude] [Bridge] You cannot turn against Yourself Your standards will endure Through every age, Your loving purpose Stands forever sure [Final Chorus] You are my strong Rock, my refuge Firm when every wall gives way You do not change, You do not fail You hold me through the day You are my strong Rock, my refuge For tomorrow and today Jehovah, I will trust in You And never turn away [Outro] My strong Rock, my refuge I am safe beneath Your care
