Troubling Winds

Where do I run to when the earth is covered in gloom
Where do I flee to when it's all covered in darkness
Where to do you flee my soul in them times of trouble
Your refuge is with the Rock of the tribe of Judah

The waves roll in threatening to drown my frail form
Of what use is a drop of fresh water in a salty ocean
Can a drop of water make change in a thirst desert
It is to you my redeemer i run to.. you the Messiah

Where do I hide my face when the war drums sound
Where do I find refuge when the war machines roll out
Where do you flee to oh my soul in them troubling days
My refuge is with Jehovah shalom who is my sustainer
