Text: | Our Refuge |
Author: | Lanta Wilson Smith |
Tune: | [Before me rolls life’s restless sea] |
Composer: | Ira B. Wilson |
1 Before me rolls life’s restless sea,
And down its shining strand
Relentless tides of passing days,
Sweep o’er its shifting sand.
Refrain:
But I am safe from all alarm,
From wave and tempest shock;
Securely hidden, safe from harm,
In Christ the mighty Rock.
2 When loud the threatening tempest roars,
And curling waves dash high,
Swift from the stern relentless storm,
To that blest Rock I fly. [Refrain]
3 When storms of sin sweep o’er the soul,
And tidal-waves of woe,
There is a refuge calm and sweet,
Secure from every foe. [Refrain]
