When my heart is overwhelmed
Hear my cry, give heed to my prayer
And my eyes are dim with tears
O Father, make them clear
From the ends of all the earth
When my heart is fainting
Let me know that You have heard
Lead me into safety
And lead me to the Rock
The Rock that’s higher
Lead me to the Rock
That’s higher than I
Lead me to the Rock
That Rock that’s higher
Higher than I
(Repeat)
You, O Lord have been for me
A refuge from my enemies
Let me live within Your strength
In the shelter of Your wings
From the ends of all the earth
When my heart is fainting
Let me know that You have heard
Lead me into safety
(Repeat chorus 3 times)
