Fortified Tower

[Verse 1] An unfriendly person pursues selfish ends And against all sound judgment starts quarrels Fools find no pleasure in understanding But delight in airing their own opinions [Pre-Chorus] When wickedness comes, so does contempt And with shame comes reproach To answer before listening That is folly and shame [Chorus] The name of the Lord The name of the Lord We run to You and we are safe We run to You and we are safe (we are safe) [Verse 2] The words of the mouth are deep waters But the fountain of wisdom is a rushing stream The words of a gossip are like choice morsels They go down to the inmost parts [Pre-Chorus] One who is slack in his work Is brother to one who destroys Before a downfall the heart is haughty But humility comes before honor [Chorus] The name of the Lord The name of the Lord We run to You and we are safe We run to You and we are safe (we are safe) [Bridge] The wealth of the rich is their fortified city They imagine it a wall too high to scale But You are higher You are stronger Our shelter stands when pride falls down [Final Chorus] The name of the Lord The name of the Lord We run to You and we are safe We run to You and we are safe We run to You and we are safe (we are safe)
