When trouble comes and I don't know where to run
And the fear inside my chest beats like a drum
In the grip of doubt, in the depths of confusion
I cry out to where my help comes from
'Cause even in shadow, I'm not alone
The Lord is my keeper, my keeper
He is always watching over my life
The Lord is my keeper, my keeper
He is always watching over my life
And there'll be days when I just can't fight no more
And I will feel defeat pound at my door
Though battle-scarred, I know I'll win this war
'Cause on my knees, I hear the Lion roar
'Cause even in shadow, I'm not alone
The Lord is my keeper, my keeper
He is always watching over my life
The Lord is my keeper, my keeper
He is always watching over my life
Darkness cannot stand the light of heaven
Brighter than the stars that pierce the night
Leading me from fear back to the promise
That God is always walking by my side
Darkness cannot stand the light of heaven
Brighter than the stars that pierce the night
Leading me from fear back to the promise
That God is always walking by my side
'Cause the Lord is my keeper, my keeper
He is always watching over my life
The Lord is my keeper, my keeper
He is always watching over my life
He is always watching over
I'm never alone
His is the safest shadow
Under His wings, I hide
