Refuge In The Lord

Nancy McDonald 1968 (Blytheville, Arkansas)

Come to God all of you

Which have a heavy heart

And He will lighten your load

Giving each of you a brand new start

He will set your feet on the path of righteousness

That will lead you homeward bound

With a sense of peace that will flood your soul

Never before found

Come to God all of you

Taking refuge in the Lord

Fill your hearts and souls

With daily reading of His word

Trust in the Lord continuously

Knowing He is in control

Let Him be the keeper

The Master of your soul
