Jesus You are my joy within
You are the shelter from the wind
You are the forgiver of my sins
Jesus You are yeah
Where can I go
Who can I call
Who's there to catch me when I fall
Your hands they hold me through it all
Everything I need You are
Jesus You are my cornerstone
You are my friend when I'm alone
You're the convictor when I'm wrong
Jesus You are yeah
You're the peace within my storm
You are the shelter from all harm
I love it when You hold me in Your arms
Everything I need You are
Jesus You are my joy within
You are the shelter from the wind
