Shelter by Colton Dixon

Passing through as I get another stare my way

Can’t always cover up the newest scar on my face

Days always in a daze

Without care or the time of day

Lord, take my hand and lead me to a safer place

Cause he is my shelter when the rain falls

He’s always there when I need to call

He comforts me gently and opens my eyes

He wipes away tears that I cannot hide

He is my shelter

As I sign the papers saying that she’s gonna leave

They were laying on the table for me to see

Tell me why she’d thrown away the love we had invested

What I ever did to deserve losing my best friend

I’m down on my knees and Lord I need you to breathe

Cause he is my shelter when the rain falls

He’s always there when I need to call

He comforts me gently and opens my eyes

He wipes away tears that I cannot hide

He is my shelter for when the rain falls

I can’t believe I made it through another day

Everyone seems to look the other way

I don’t own a change of clothes
And I have no home

But I can be sure that I am not alone

Cause you are my shelter when the rain falls

You’re always near when I need to call

You comfort me gently and open my eyes

You wipe away tears that I cannot hide

You are my shelter when the rain falls

You’re always there when I need to call

You comfort me gently and open my eyes

You wipe away tears that I’ve yet to cry

You are my shelter
