Refuge
by Skillet

Album: Dominion


Verse 1: John Cooper
When I open my eyes, I can't believe it
How the world can look so different than we were dreamin'
It's gettin' harder to say I'm undefeated
When the best my heart can hope for is breakin' even

Pre-Chorus 1: John Cooper
Here and now, reachin' out
In my hurt, I don't know how
But I know I'm not alone

Chorus 1: John Cooper
I can face my darkest night
'Cause I trust You with my life
I'm not afraid for You are my refuge
When it's heavy on my chest
You're the place I catch my breath
You are the only one I hold onto

Post-Chorus: John Cooper
Oh, 'cause You are my refuge

Verse 2: John Cooper & Jen Ledger
I know how this ends
I'm gonna make it
Your Word is in my heart
No one could ever take it

Pre-Chorus 2: John Cooper
Here and now, in this hour
Come and fill me with Your power
Let me know I'm not alone

Chorus 1: John Cooper & Jen Ledger
I can face my darkest night
'Cause I trust You with my life
I'm not afraid for You are my refuge
When it's heavy on my chest
You're the place I catch my breath
You are the only one I hold onto

Chorus 2: John Cooper & Jen Ledger
Every day and darkest night (Night)
I trust You at all times (Trust You at all times)
I'm not afraid for You are my refuge
And when I've got nothin' left (Got nothin' left)
You're the place I find my rest (Place I find my rest)
You are the only one that I run to

Post-Chorus: John Cooper & Jen Ledger
Yes, You are my refuge

Bridge: John Cooper & Jen Ledger
You're my rest, You're my rock, You're my fortress
You're my strength, You're my shield and You're my defense
Nothing could ever take me from You
Nothin's ever gonna take me from You

Chorus 1: John Cooper, John Cooper & Jen Ledger
I can face my darkest night
'Cause I trust You with my life
I'm not afraid for You are my refuge
When it's heavy on my chest
You're the place I catch my breath
You are the only one I hold onto

Chorus 2: John Cooper & Jen Ledger
Every day and darkest night (Darkest night)
I trust You at all times (Trust You at all times)
I'm not afraid for You are my refuge
And when I've got nothin' left (Got nothin' left)
You're the place I find my rest (Place I find my rest)
You are the only one that I run to

Post-Chorus: John Cooper & Jen Ledger
Yes, You are my refuge
