When the Storm Came

Lyrics

Shelter, cover me that I will not be found,
 I knelt there watched my brother freeze, I watched my children drown,
 Surround me in your loving arms and keep me in your prayers,
 I used to pray to Jesus, I knew Jesus didn't care
 Brick by hopeless brick I built this fortress all around me,
 Six feet long and two feet wide so no one could have found me,
 And in each brick a message saying "thou shall't never pass",
 Such was my devotion against motion but alas
 ♪
 I won't leave (There's iron in this here ground)
 I'll build myself a fortress, I'll be safe and I'll be sound,
 I won't leave (There's iron in this here ground)
 When the storm came, The storm came hard
 ♪
 What was I to do, What was I to do,
 There came a raging wind that blew,
 What was I to do, What was I to do,
 I bit off more than anyone could chew
 A fool to think me worthy, A fool to think at all,
 I thought my fortress sturdy who'd have thought that it would fall.
