Dear God, Family, and Friends,

There are days when I feel alone

I have made mistakes that have lead them away from you

But I will just change my tone

And spread the word of your name

 

But fear is rising in my soul

I’m so tired of being afraid

I cry out to you amongst the rain

And you/ say that i’ve got a choice to make

 

(Chorus 1)

I wanna be close to your side

I wanna be near your heart

I am all broken up inside

But I won’t give up ‘cause you never gave up on me

 

Now I can hear your voice

It’s stirin’ inside my soul

I have made my choice

From the bottom of my heart

I cry out (to chorus 1)

 

(spoken)From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher then I. For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe.      -Psalm 61:2-3

 

(Ooo, Ohhh)

[bridge]

You’re my refuge in the storm

You’re my shepherd when I’m lost

You’re my hope when faith is gone

You’re my life when I have no breath

You’re my brace when I have fallen

You’re my peace when I’m afraid (repeat)

 

[Chorus 2]

(Oh Lord)

I’m gonna be close to your side

I’m gonna be near your heart

I’m all broken up inside (repeat)

But I won’t give up

(hmm)I won’t give up

(yeah) I won’t give up ‘cause you never gave up on me
