You Are My Rock
Hillsong United · Other Songs - Hillsong United
There's a cry deep within me, a yearning to feel you
I look to you, Lord
I can pretend I don't run from the feelings I'm trying to hide
Must get the focus of me and my problems
I look to the cross
You are my Rock
On You I stand
Safe from the storms that surround me
You're my only Rock, In you I can
Don't have to rely on my own strength.
You Are My Rock
