I love this song. I don't remember where/when I first heard the chorus but I liked it. I love the idea of having a Shelter In The Time Of Storm. I looked up the words and the whole song has wonderful images of being sheltered.
The Lord's our Rock, in Him we hide
A shelter in the time of storm,
Secure whatever ill betide
A shelter in the time of storm.
Oh, Jesus is a Rock in a weary land,
A weary land, a weary land;
Oh, Jesus is a Rock in a weary land
A shelter in the time of storm.
A shade by day, defense by night
A shelter in teh time of storm;
No fears alarm, no foes affright
A shelter in the time of storm.
The raging storms may round us beat
A shelter in teh time of storm;
We'll never leave our safe retreat
A shelter in teh time of storm.
O Rock divine, O Refuge dear
A shelter in the time of storm;
Be Thour our helper ever near
A shelter in the time of storm.
The lyrics were written by Vernon J. Charlesworth
