It seems Ive been running forever

I just cant go on another day

The words I once trusted are useless

The strength in my body fades away

My fear clings like heat in the desert

And strikes at my heals like a snake

Father I need your assistance

I dont know how much more I can take



Chorus

Dont be afraid my son, for I am with you

I will lead you to a perfect place

I will defend you in your day of trouble

I will cover you inside my grace



I come to a place of refreshment

A station of safety and rest

I pray for a bread sent from Heaven

My need wont be filled from any less

My God gives the sword of Goliath

And feeds me on manna divine

The weapon once used to destroy me

Will now serve to take back what is mine



Chorus



The serpent, who filled me with sorrow

Is no longer an object of dread

I go to his camp with vengeance

And retreat in the night with his head



Chorus
