Jesus Is My Refuge

Jesus Is My Refuge! My soul is broken and my body's achin'. At times, I feel lost and forsaken. I've tried to serve God the best I could. So many of his ways, I never understood. Rather then trusting him and holding his hand. My life is sinking deep into quicksand! So many nights, I cried myself to sleep. I feel like I'm in a pit 1000 ft. deep. I cry unto you Lord to pull me out. From you... Oh Lord... I don't want to be without! By your tender mercy and unfailing grace. I trust you to put my life on a solid place. This solid place is Jesus! My rock and foundation. I've received his free gift of salvation. He put my feet on a rock to stay. And his word guides me each and every day. A song of thanksgiving is what I bring. He is my righteousness and my everything! He's always there when I needed someone to turn to. He's here right now... and is waiting for YOU!
