[Intro]
(Trust in the Lord)
[Verse 1: Tony]
Check it out, yo
This world is unpredictable due to original sin
Where everything is temporal and doomed to a pitiful end
Our material ends, even marriages fail
Skyscrapers, colossal, they topple and perish as well
Even the big get snapped like the feeblest twig
And yet even with this, we act like the three little pigs
In hay or stubble we trust
The day that trouble erupts
And Satan huffs and he puffs
Our safety crumbles to dust
But I know of a Rock, a stalwart tower
No vulnerable wall or spot, he's strong with power
His foes are powerless to challenge him
Though many give it a fool's try
From his battlements, every arrow sent is hitting the bullseye
Who can save face when he lays waste
To the ones that he brawls with?
Make haste for that safe place, run over the drawbridge
God is a refuge, a help in the critical hour
Protecting, holding, never letting go of me
[Name of the?] Lord's an impregnable tower
[Hook: Will Passion]
Our God is a fortress
The strongest of towers
A Rock for the souls
Who hope in his power
Our God is a refuge
The Lord is our strength
That won't devour
So in whom are you placing your faith?
We trust in the King
Won't trust in them things
A strong tower for the saints
So we trust in his name
We rest in the King
So forever we'll sing
Our strong tower who has saved us
From death and its sting
[Verse 2: S.O.]
Strong tower, in all hours the refuge
Hazakim let me let loose
Show them people the best use
Of your voices is to show his glory
Angels screaming "holy, holy"
Yeah, he choose to know we lowly people
My savior God is regal
We evil and deceitful
His power knows no equal yet he choose to walk and lead too
How many see that common grace with your poker face
You can't go astray on my King
You hold his shape and he call the play
'Cause you playing a part of his team
Some people trust in that green, uh-uh
As if that money's safe
Money goes, that money came
Only hope is the one who wears the ring
[He?] thunderous sunny days
He the one who'll give me shade
He the one who won't let me sway
He the son, again let me say
Them towers are leaning
Go back to the Garden of Eden
The same God who was there
The same God we believe in
He be mighty to save, never underachieving
The same God who's a refuge to those who trust and believe him
[Hook: Will Passion]
Our God is a fortress
The strongest of towers
A Rock for the souls
Who hope in his power
Our God is a refuge
The Lord is our strength
That won't devour
So in whom are you placing your faith?
We trust in the King
Won't trust in them things
A strong tower for the saints
So we trust in his name
We rest in the King
So forever we'll sing
Our strong tower who has saved us
From death and its sting
[Verse 3: Tony]
Though I was in it alone
When my strength failed me
Hungry, diminished to bones
In my weak frailty
The love was all around
Your prayers helped me most
Y'all held me down
But God held me close
Even if he slay me
Him will I place faith in
His grace saving
His great name is a safe haven
Mountains tumble and crash
The palace [and humble?] collapse
Down to rubble and ash
But my tower through trouble will last
It will not topple or falter
Eternal, and nothing can alter
The others are quicksand
But he's more solid than the Rock of Gibraltar
Can't move that chief cornerstone
He's on the throne reigning
Those rejected him ain't affecting him
He's forever maintaining
Can I get an amen?
Others wanna put their faith in chariots and some horses
Everybody better get in while you can into that strong tower, that blessed fortress
If he's for us and his blood is purchasing salvation
Join in the chorus, his love's the firmest of foundations
[Hook: Will Passion]
Our God is a fortress
The strongest of towers
A Rock for the souls
Who hope in his power
Our God is a refuge
The Lord is our strength

Won't trust in them things
A strong tower for the saints
So we trust in his name
We rest in the King
So forever we'll sing
Our strong tower who has saved us
From death and its sting
