Weather the Storm

I seem so alone I cannot see I feel far from Home But You have never left me The depths of my heart Are known but to You And You guide each part Toward the good, the beautiful, the true And You'll be my shield And You'll be my strength To keep me from harm And You'll never yield My heart You will shape To weather the storm And e'en though the powers of Hell Approach on every side You'll be my shield You'll be my strength To weather the storm You search me, Lord, and You know me Discerning my purpose from afar I searched for You in creatures But found emptiness instead And to seek a sense of stillness In the whirlwind of the storm I turned to You And to Your peace Our hearts are all restless 'Till they rest in Thee The world may be senseless But You have nourished me I don't know what's coming Or what lies in store The rigging is humming And someday I Shall reach Your shore And You'll be my shield And You'll be my strength To keep me from harm And You'll never yield My heart You will shape To weather the storm And e'en though the powers of Hell Approach on every side You'll be my shield You'll be my strength To weather the storm You'll be my shield You'll be my strength To weather the storm
