Song information
Artist: Jaci Velasquez Album: Heavenly Place
Lyrics
Mark heimermann, dan huff & wayne kirkpatrick
How the mind can wander How the heart can stray Suddenly you're on the edge of darkness How it makes me ponder How I'm led away Down a path that leaves me worn and tarnished
Battling with the will within I have known all along That I should lean on you 'Cause I'm never strong enough To fight it on my own
Chorus: Shelter me The ways of the world are at my feet Shelter me From the desires that deceive You are the fortress I need Shelter me
How the mind can wonder How the heart can change When you set your sights on holiness And though at times you falter It's the only way You can find a place of peace to rest
Safe from danger surrounding me Safe from looming defeat When temptation is at my door Lord I need a harbor Be my soul's retreat
Chorus
You will never leave me stranded Fending for myself When the enemy advances You are there to help Standing in the gap for me Whenever I grow weak You are my deliverer The refuge that I seek
I should lean on you 'Cause I'm never strong enough To fight it on my own
How the mind can wander How the heart can stray Suddenly you're on the edge of darkness How it makes me ponder How I'm led away Down a path that leaves me worn and tarnished
Battling with the will within I have known all along That I should lean on you 'Cause I'm never strong enough To fight it on my own
Chorus
