Phil Thompson's song 'Sheltered' is a worship ballad about finding refuge in God during times of darkness, accusation, and despair. The lyrics describe sinking deep and being stained, yet God hears and shelters the singer under His wings, providing a home away from home. The song shifts to a declaration of praise, affirming that God reigns forever. It draws on imagery of God as a protector and deliverer, reminiscent of Psalm 91's sheltering wings. The overall message is one of trust, gratitude, and worship for God's faithful protection and sovereignty.

Submit Lyrics

When accusations came and darkness settled in

When I was spiralling, imploding from within

And all the while You held me

Carrying me through

You sheltered me

In the shadow of Your wings

My home away from home

When I was sinking deep too far from peaceful shores

So deeply stained within sinking to rise no more

And from the depths You heard me

The master of the sea

You sheltered me

In the shadow of Your wings

My home away from home

You sheltered me

In the shadow of Your wings

My home away from home

And I will sing Your praise

I will sing Your praise

Forever, You reign

And I will sing Your praise

I will sing Your praise

Forever, You reign

And I will sing Your praise

I will sing Your praise

Forever, You reign

And I will sing Your praise

I will sing Your praise

Forever, You reign...

Forever, You reign
