Haven

A place where shelter is acquired
To keep you safe from what would harm
A place where forges are refired 
To bring a weapon of alarm

To keep you safe from what would harm
So you can slay the demons in your life
To bring a weapon of alarm 
Forged from the fires of toil and strife 

So you can slay the demons in your life 
You've acquired a weapon that's divine 
Forged from the fires of toil and strife 
It's a sword that  lasts throughout time

You've acquired a weapon that's divine 
The word of God that is so true 
It's a sword that lasts throughout time 
Defeating what once had held you 

The word of God that is so true 
A place where forges are refired 
Defeating what once had held you 
A place where shelter is acquired
