God is my tower of strength

Amid the greed, the turmoil, the famine and war, despite the toil and strife.
God is my tower of strength
Through him I gain the power and fortitude to face each day of life.

Confused by the turmoil and strife, saddened by the famine & war I see 
God is my tower of strength
Through him I struggle onward, despite a heart that bleeds

Bewildered by the greed of man, sore from the toil of daily plight
God is my tower of strength
Through him my hands are still willing to do what I know is right

Often I must wonder why, sometimes I feel like walking away
But God is my tower of strength
Through him my stance is steady and I live life day for day

I sometimes stray, I often doubt, but in the end I know
God is my tower of strength
Through him I find my path again, from his heart my courage flows

Until the day he calls me home, to heaven’s eternal shore
God is my tower of strength
Through him I’ll continue to carry my load and the pain I will endure
