My Refuge and Fortress

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

I dwell in the secret place

Under the shadow of the Most High

You are my refuge and my tower

In you alone I hide

Pre-Chorus

The snare is broken

The plague has passed me by

Covered in feathers

Sheltered under wings

Chorus

You are my fortress

My God in whom I trust

You are my fortress

My shield and my buckler

Post-Chorus

(Whoa-oh) I will not be afraid

(Whoa-oh) I will not be afraid

Verse 2

No terror walks my midnight

No arrow finds my day

A thousand fall beside me

But none shall come my way

Pre-Chorus

Angels are commanded

To keep me in my ways

They lift me in their hands

Lest I strike the stone

Chorus

You are my fortress

My God in whom I trust

You are my fortress

My shield and my buckler

Post-Chorus

(Whoa-oh) I will not be afraid

(Whoa-oh) I will not be afraid

Bridge

I tread upon the lion

I trample down the snake

He set his love upon me

He called me by my name

Breakdown

He answers when I call him

He stays when trouble comes

He answers when I call him

He honors what he's done

Chorus

You are my fortress

My God in whom I trust

You are my fortress

My shield and my buckler

Post-Chorus

(Whoa-oh) I will not be afraid

(Whoa-oh) I will not be afraid

Guitar Solo

Outro

With long life he satisfies

He shows me his salvation
