Lyrics

When I (Bbsus2)wan der through the (Dm)des ert and I’m long ing for my (C)home, all my (Bb)dreams have gone a (Dm)stray.

I go run ning (F)to Your (Bbsus2)moun tain,

where Your mer cy (F)sets me (Bbsus2)free.

You are my strong (F)tow er, a shel ter o ver (Dm7)me,

beau ti ful and (Bbsus2)might y, ev er last ing King.

You are (C)my strong (F)tow er, a for tress when I’m (Dm7)weak.

Your name is true and (Bbsus2)ho ly,

and Your (C)face is all I (Bb)seek.

In the (Bbsus2)mid dle of my (Dm)dark ness, in the midst of all my (C)fear, You’re my (Bb)ref uge and my (Dm)hope.

When the (Bb)storm of life is (Dm)rag ing and the thun der’s all I (C)hear, You speak (Bb)soft ly to my (Dm)soul.

Now I’m run ning (F)to Your (Bbsus2)moun tain,

where Your mer cy (F)sets me (Bbsus2)free.

You are my strong (F)tow er, a shel ter o ver (Dm7)me,

And Your (C)face is all I (Bb)seek.

Yeah, Your (C)face is all I (Bbsus2)seek.

I go run ning (F)to Your (Bbsus2)moun tain,

where Your mer cy (F)sets me (Bbsus2)free.

You are my strong (F)tow er, a shel ter o ver (Dm7)me, beau ti ful and (Bbsus2)might y, ev er last ing King.
