[Verse 1:]
There is a place where winds don't blow,
sorrow or pain it does not know,
love and protection surround my soul;
in the shelter of Your arms.
[Verse 2:]
Lord in Your arms there is much peace,
and from the storm I find relief.
Because I love You, You rescued me,
in the shelter of Your arms.
[Chorus:]
In the shelter of Your arms,
there I'm free and safe from harm.
Comfort I find and peace of mind,
in the shelter, oh in the shelter,
in the shelter of Your arms
(safe in the shelter, safe in the shelter of Your arms).
[Verse 3:]
Hurt by the pain that life can bring,
steadfast unto Your word I cling.
Lord I find refuge beneath Your wing,
in the shelter of Your arms.
[Bridge:]
In the shelter, oh in the shelter.
Rock me Lord, oh in the shelter.
Hide me Lord, oh in the shelter.
[Ending:]
in the shelter of Your arms
(safe in the shelter, safe in the shelter of Your arms.)
