God, your shelter

Overcast, the clouds are grey and the sky is getting darker,
all signs say it's about to rain and you can't find no shelter.
It has been this way for awhile and your faith has been rattled,
sin and selfishness, sacrifice and service, the enemy has you embattled.
You want to pray for shelter but you fear you will get no answer,
so you grit your teeth and make the effort to withstand the weather.
How much more of this can you take? You don't want to think about.
Is God still my friend? You feel unsure and are overcome by doubt.
Why you are in this bad weather may be heavily reasons of your own,
but it does not mean the God you serve has somehow lost his throne.
Surrender all and trust that he is still there, for he has and will not abandon you,
he is your shelter and much more, and in time you'll be amazed at what he can do.
Sing out his praise with conviction because you know your God is omnipotent,
so you can wait and watch, because the Lord, your God is your shelter and strength.
