Abby Robertson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where I could find rest
Your love gave me strength
When I ran out of breath
Nobody knows me like you do
Jesus, I run to you
Whenever I fall it's into your arms
When clouds around me gather
You are my shelter
Even in the waves of a raging sea
You're the calm where I find peace
When waters rise around me
You are my Sanctuary
You are my sanctuary
Jesus, you are
You're my hideaway
When I can't take it anymore
Yea with just a whisper of Your name
You settle the storms
Nobody knows me like you do
Jesus, I run to you
Wherever I am There You are
Whenever I fall it's into your arms
When clouds around me gather
You are my shelter
Even in the waves of a raging sea
You're the calm where I find peace
When waters rise around me
You are my sanctuary
You are my sanctuary
Jesus, you are
You're my hiding place
I'm always safe
I'm Safe in Your arms
You'll never change
You stay the same
It's just who You are
Wherever I am there you are
Whenever I fall it's into your arms
Wherever I am There You are
Whenever I fall it's into your arms
When clouds around me gather
You are my shelter
Even in the waves of a raging sea
You're the calm where I find peace
When waters rise around me
You are my sanctuary
You are my sanctuary
Jesus, you are
You're my hiding place
And I'm always safe
My sanctuary
