Chorus / Description :
surround me like a fortress
Enclose me with your walls
Till I’m completely captured in the safety of
Your arms
Draw out the lies and judgement
Lock up your mighty gates
Your voice my sole companion
And I cling to every word
Verse 1:
I?m out here in the war zone
The dark is closing in
My strength is almost gone
Soon I?ll be swallowed whole
Don?t leave me defenseless
I need your lions roar
To put my fear to fly
Your light to burden night
I?m running to you
You?re the safest place
Chorus:
surround me like a fortress
Enclose me with your walls
Till I?m completely captured in the safety of
Your arms
Draw out the lies and judgement
Lock up your mighty gates
Your voice my sole companion
And I cling to every word
Verse 2:
You are my shield and shelter
Your truth my true defence
I?m held within your perfect love
No weapon formed is strong enough
And I?m running to you
You?re the safest place
Bridge:
And ever my voice will sing your praise
Ever my heart will know your love
My soul is well here
Jehovah is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; My God, my rock, in whom I will take refuge; My shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower.
Unto thee, O my strength, will I sing praises: For God is my high tower, the God of my mercy. Psalm 60 For the Chief Musician; `set to' Shushan Eduth. Michtam of David, to teach; and when he strove with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, and Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the Valley of Salt twelve thousand.
