Storms gather o'er thy pathB
Christian the sullen tempest darkened skyA
Grows lurid with the elemental wrathB
Say whither wilt thou flyA

God is my Refuge let the tempests comeC
They will but speed me sooner to my homeD

Night lowers in sullen gloomE
Christian a long dark night awaiteth theeF
Dreary as Egypt's night of fear and doomE
Where will thy hiding beF

God is my refuge in the dreary nightG
In Him I dwell and have abundant lightG

Where is thy place of restI

God is my Refuge safe in Him I moveJ
And feel no fear kept by sustaining LoveK

The grave that dreary placeL
Christian the lonely dwelling in the dustM
Awaits thee 'tis the doom of all thy raceL
Where then shall be thy trustM

God is my refuge Sweet will be my restI
On the dear pillow that my Saviour pressedI

-
Alas that dreamless sleepN
Christian its chains are strong and hard to breakO
All thy belov'd sleep on in silence deepN
And dost thou hope to wakeO
-
God is my refuge I shall wake and singP
O grave where is thy vict'ry death thy stingP
