Take Refuge

If life has thrown you down to trample on,

If everything you do just makes things worse,

If you are at your end and hope is gone,

Take refuge in the Lord, He's not adverse.

If peace and plenty seem so far away,

If others beat you up and tear you down,

If trouble follows you both night and day,

Take refuge in the Lord, He holds your crown.

If all your worries follow you around,

If you are lost and don't know what to do,

If all you wish is simply to be found,

Take refuge in the Lord, He'll see you through.

            If you are so oppressed and you need aid,

            Take refuge in the Lord, don't be afraid.

            ~~~~~~~~~~~

The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed,

a refuge in times of trouble.

Psalm 9:9 KJV
