Strong Tower

Music and words by Peter Furler and Steve Taylor


Strong in battle, strong in kindness,
When we stray, Lord, You're strong to find us.
When the winds come hard against us,
You are steadfast, You are true.
When the ground beneath us trembles,
Your foundation never moves.

Strong tower, high and glorious,
Strong tower, mighty in love,
Our refuge, our defender,
Strong tower, Lord, above.

Strong to lead us through the shadows,
Strong to carry all our sorrows.
When the enemy surrounds us,
Closing in as darkness falls,
Though his armies rage against us,
They can never scale these walls.

You are my shelter, my shield.
You are the home I could never deserve.
Here I will serve, ever under Your gaze.
Here I will serve, ever singing Your praise.

Strong tower, Lord, above.
Strong tower, Lord, above.
