There’s a woman who tries to hide From a man who’s dark inside. For her children she says a prayer Fear and desperation keeps her there. Will redemption come around in time to save her? She wants to run from the life that he gave her. She cries….
[Chorus] “Love, come and Shelter Me, Your light is all I need to survive. Take me from where the cold wind’s blowin, To where the healing water’s flowin’, Love, come and Shelter Me.”
…and there’s a beggar, feels like half a man. He fought the war, now he fights the pain. He was a hero in a foreign land Now he’s flat broke and stranded in the rain. But his dignity runs deeper than the ocean In a voice that trembles with emotion, he cries…
[2nd Chorus] “Love, come and Shelter Me Your light is all I need to survive. In a world where the cold winds blowin’ Will your love be a shelter for me?”
[Bridge] So blind, yet we try to see Fallin’ short of what could be All hopes and dreams goin’ nowhere. So we pray for a new tomorrow To wash our sorrows away
[Refrain] Pray for a new tomorrow To wash our sorrows away….
