[Verse 1 — softly spoken] They tell me, “Fly for shelter; the arrows wait unseen. The ground beneath the faithful is breaking at the seams.” [Response — lightly sung] You are my refuge; I will not live by fear. Though the foundations tremble, Your faithful gaze is here. [Verse 2 — softly spoken] You are not absent from the ruins, nor blinded by the night. You know the hands that carry peace; You love what is just and right. [Response — gentle harmony] You are my refuge; I will not live by fear. Though the foundations tremble, Your faithful gaze is here. [Bridge — gently rising] Let courage not become hardness. Let trust not close my eyes. Keep my heart upright before You when shadows counsel flight. [Final Response — quiet and steady] Though the foundations tremble… I remain beneath Your light.
