Lord You are my refuge and my shelter
In Your presence I will hide
I will wait for the God of my salvation
He will hear me when I cry
Though I fall I will rise
High above the storm
Like an eagle I will fly
In the dark You are my light
Bright and morning star
Come and lead me through the night
O lead me through the night
Lord You are my help in times of trouble
When others leave You will abide
You’re a friend that’s closer than a brother
You will never leave my side
Lead me through the night
Lead me through the night
