Lyrics
I made my bed in the shadow of the Most High
Where the pestilence stalks, I shut my eyes
The snare is set, the trapper grins
But the fortress holds, and the dark won't win
Refuge! Fortress! The God I trust!
When the ground gives way, He won't let me rust
My shield, my wall, the breath I breathe!
He delivers me from what I can't see
A thousand fall at my left hand
Ten thousand crumble where they stand
But it won't touch me, it won't come near
I dwell in the shadow, I will not fear!
Terror by night, you got nothing for me
Destruction at noon, I'm already free
His pinions cover, His faithfulness shields
I'm watching the wicked reap what the wasteland yields
Pestilence stalks! (It passes by!)
Destruction screams! (But I won't die!)
A fortress built on the Name above
The shadow of wrath becomes the shadow of love!
A thousand fall at my left hand
Ten thousand crumble where they stand
But it won't touch me, it won't come near
I dwell in the shadow, I will not fear!
(I will not fear! I will not fear!)
The recompense of the wicked laid bare
I stood and watched from the shelter of prayer
The carnage around me, the judgment complete
I never once moved from beneath His feet
