When the storm clouds rise
and the sky is dark,
When oppressed with anxious care;
I’ve a safe retreat
in the strong, high tow’r,
For no ill can e’er harm me there.
I will hide in the safe retreat,
I will hide in the safe retreat;
When the storm clouds fly
till they pass me by
I will hide in the safe retreat.
When the lightnings flash
and the thunders roll,
And the storms in fury beat;
When they seem so sure
to engulf my soul,
Then I hide in the safe retreat.
I will hide in the safe retreat,
I will hide in the safe retreat;
When the storm clouds fly
till they pass me by
I will hide in the safe retreat.
Soon the storms will pass
and the sky will clear,
And my rest be calm and sweet;
I will trust and wait
with no anxious fear,
For I hide in the safe retreat.
I will hide in the safe retreat,
I will hide in the safe retreat;
When the storm clouds fly
till they pass me by
I will hide in the safe retreat.
