Shelter

Verse I
Passing through as I get another stare my way
Can’t always cover-up the newest scar on my face
Daddy’s always in a daze, without care of the time of day
Lord, take my hand and lead me to a safer place

Chorus
[‘Cause] He is my shelter when the rain falls
He’s always near when I need to call
Comforts me gently, opens my eyes
He wipes away tears that I cannot hide
He is my shelter for when the rain falls.

Verse II
All this time the paper’s saying that she’s gonna leave (?)
They were laying on the table for me to see
Tell me why she threw away the life we have invested
What I ever did to deserve losing my best friend?
I’m down on my knees and Lord I need you to breathe
Oh, Tell me…

(Chorus)

Verse III
I can’t believe I made through another day
Everyone seems to look the other way
I don’t have a change of clothes, and I have no home
But I can be assured that I am not alone!
‘Cause You are my shelter when the rain falls
You’re always near when I need to call
You comfort me gently and opened my eyes
You wipe away tears that I cannot hide
You are my shelter when the rain falls
You’re always near when I need to call
You comfort me gently and opened my eyes
You wipe away tears that I get to cry
You are my shelter…You are my shelter…
Ooh you are my shelter…for when the rain falls
Wooo ooh for the rain falls…
