If you let me I will be your shelter

I will be your strngth and shield

As you battle in the field alone

There are moments when I sit

And look into this heart that now

I know your burdens

I know all your needs

And when you feel you stand alone

As you battle in the field

I will forever be your strength

Forever be your shield

For the rest of your days
