From the dawning of the world
And it's wonders
Before the mountains
Reached the skies
From everlasting
To everlasting
You were there through all of time.
All my fathers heard your call
Through the ages
They made the choice to follow you
You were faithful
To the faithful
They found your promise to be true.
You have been a shelter Lord
To every generation
To every generation
A sanctuary from the storm
To every generation
To every generation Lord.
I was born into your arms
Oh my father
There's still a refuge there for me.
From my first breath
Drawn from your breath
You've been my security.
You have been a shelter Lord
To every generation
To every generation
A sanctuary from the storm
To every generation
To every generation Lord.
My years go by
Before your eyes
My days rush into the night
Time would steal
Every dream I feel
Give my hopes a place to hide
All the days of my life.
Let my children know
Your mercies in the morning
And find your greatness as they grow.
May your glory be their glory.
May your heart become their own.
Oh Lord
You will be a shelter Lord
To every generation
To every generation
A sanctuary from the storm
(Lord you will be)
To every generation
To every generation
You will be a shelter Lord
(now and forever)
To every generation
To every generation
A sanctuary from the storm
(now and forever)
To every generation
To every generation Lord.
