The Shadow of Your Wings

Have mercy on me, oh my Father
For in You my soul finds relief
In the shadow of Your wings
Is a refuge made for me
A refuge till the storm has passed me by

I cry out to God most high
To God who fulfills His purpose for me
He sends from heaven above
His faithfulness and love
And saves me from the ones who would harm me
So save me

Chorus

Hide me in the shadow of Your wings
Cover me with love and grace and comfort me
Sheltered in Your presence is where I long to be
So hide me in the shadow of Your wings

I will praise You Oh Lord among the nations
I will sing of You before all men
For great is Your love for me, it reaches to the heavenlies
Your faithfulness it reaches to the sky

So be exalted Oh God above the heavens
Let Your glory be over the earth and the seas
And when my life on earth is through
I’ll still be holding on to You
To find that You are holding on to me
So hold onto me

Chorus

Hide me in the shadow of Your wings
Cover me with love and grace and comfort me
Sheltered in Your presence is where I long to be
So hide me in the shadow of Your wings
