[Opening] Gm7 Dm7 Am7 F (x3) [Intro]
          Gm7
When the storm clouds rise

         Am7        
And the sky is dark

        Gm7                  Am7      
And I'm pressed with anxious care

       Gm7                 Am7            
I've a safe retreat in the strong, high tower

       Gm7              Am7
For no ill can harm me there
[Hook]
                  Gm7        Am7
I'll hide in Your safe retreat

             Gm7         F
Hide in Your safe retreat

         Gm7
When the storm clouds fly

           C
'Til they pass me by

       Gm7                   F
I will hide in Your safe retreat
[Verse 1]
         Gm7
When the lightnings flash

        C     
And the thunders roar

        Dm7             F
And the storms in fury be

          Gm7                C
When they seem so sure to engulf my soul

          Dm7               F
Then I'll hide in Your safe retreat

         Gm7
Soon the storms will pass

        C
And the sky will clear

       Dm7               F
And my rest be calm and sweet

       Gm7                    C
I will trust and wait with no anxious fear

    Dm7                          F
For I'll hide in Your safe retreat
[Hook]
                  Gm7         C
I'll hide in Your safe retreat

             Dm7  F
Hide in Your safe retreat

         Gm7
When the storm clouds fly

          C
'Til they pass me by

       Dm7                     F
I will hide in Your safe retreat
[Verse 2]
F
Where have I been when it seems like
N.C. I'm hiding under a rock? I'm hiding under my rock N.C. I'll seek then not hide, I'm too weak to speak N.C. In the stillness of prayer there's no secrets N.C. God already knows my longing, my yearning N.C. My groaning, my burning, my scars and my hurting N.C. It's no surprise to Him, His watchful eye'll see it N.C. I'm only fooling myself when I conceal it N.C. Apart from grace I would never seek Your sovereign face N.C. Next to You the only place to keep my heart chaste N.C. Otherwise I chase idols to my disgrace N.C. And waste time tryna fix what I can only break N.C. It's when I'm broken that I'm standing open-handed N.C. Reaching out to my Father, knowing You understand me N.C. In Your arms I can safely rest N.C. You're the God who gives life from death [Bridge]
