143. A Shelter in the Time of Storm

1 The Lord's our rock, in Him we hide,
A shelter in the time of storm;
Secure whatever ill betide,
A shelter in the time of storm.

Refrain:
O, Jesus is a rock in a weary land,
A weary land, a weary land;
O, Jesus is a rock in a weary land,
A shelter in the time of storm.

2 A shade by day, defense by night,
A shelter in the time of storm;
No fears alarm, no fears affright,
A shelter in the time of storm. [Refrain]

3 The raging storms may 'round us beat,
A shelter in the time of storm;
We'll never leave our safe retreat,
A shelter in the time of storm. [Refrain]

4 O Rock divine, O Refuge dear,
A shelter in the time of storm;
Be Thou our helper ever near,
A shelter in the time of storm. [Refrain]
