Oh lord, you are my dwelling place

Oh Lord, You are my dwelling place,
To which I run in time of need,
For I know that when I call to You,
My dry and thirsty soul You'll feed.

As I shelter beneath Your mighty wings,
I know You'll keep me safe from harm,
For when storms are raging all around,
You're a haven of peace and calm.

You are my fortress, safe and strong;
My God, in whom I trust,
And I know when foes attack me,
That You are faithful, true and just.

I know, in times of trouble,
That I can always run to You,
And I know that You'll protect me,
For all Your promises are true.

So, Lord, I give You the glory,
And the honour that is due Your name,
For I know that, now I am Your child,
My life will never be the same.

Yes, Father, I give my life to You,
To do with as You will,
And I pray that as I walk with You,
Your desire for me I will fulfil.

Then, when You send Your blessed Son
To claim His pure and spotless bride,
I pray that worthy I'll be found
In one of Your mansions to abide.
