My Fortress

You are my fortress on that high cliff...where I am safe.

You are my fortress, 
When I take that step of faith, when I need courage to obey,
In that moment of doubt, when I need to choose to believe...

You are my fortress on that high cliff...where I am safe.

You are my fortress in that seemingly endless trial,
When I have to persevere to trust, believe, praise,
You are my fortress in that new assignment, that new job, that new responsibility...
You are my fortress in the endless house chores,
Those long nights when the crying seems to never end,
In my fatigue,
When I never seem to have a moment to myself...

You are my fortress, God, on that high cliff...where I am safe.

You are my fortress in the storm, in the sickness, in the brokenness, the pain,
You are my fortress in the confusion, in the accusation.
You are my strong tower, God, my hiding place,
The One I turn to, to keep me safe.
Safe from the enemy's lies, his deceptive illusions, his pretense, his NONSENSE.

You protect me..covering me with Your Truth..surrounding me with all I need to keep safe.

You are my fortress on that high cliff...and I am safe!!!

Ps. 31:3
