  • When I open my eyes, I can't believe it
    How the world can look so different than we were dreamin'
    It's gettin' harder to say I'm undefeated
    When the best my heart can hope for is breakin' even

    Here and now, reachin' out
    In my hurt, I don't know how
    But I know I'm not alone

    I can face my darkest night
    'Cause I trust You with my life
    I'm not afraid, for You are my refuge
    When it's heavy on my chest
    You're the place I catch my breath
    You are the only one I hold onto
    Oh, 'cause You are my refuge

    I know how this ends, I'm gonna make it
    Your Word is in my heart, none could ever take it

    Here and now, in this hour
    Come and fill me with Your power
    Let me know I'm not alone

    I can face my darkest night
    'Cause I trust You with my life
    I'm not afraid, for You are my refuge
    When it's heavy on my chest
    You're the place I catch my breath
    You are the only one I hold onto

    Every day and darkest night (night)
    I trust You at all times (trust You at all times)
    I'm not afraid, for You are my refuge
    And when I've got nothin' left (got nothin' left)
    You're the place I find my rest (place I find my rest)
    You are the only one that I run to
    Yes, You are my refuge

    You're my rest, You're my rock, You're my fortress
    You're my strength, You're my shield and You're my defense
    Nothing could ever take me from You
    Nothing's ever gonna take me from You

    I can face my darkest night
    'Cause I trust You with my life
    I'm not afraid, for You are my refuge
    When it's heavy on my chest
    You're the place I catch my breath
    You are the only one I hold onto

    Every day and darkest night (darkest night)
    I trust You at all times (trust You at all times)
    I'm not afraid, for You are my refuge
    And when I've got nothin' left (got nothin' left)
    You're the place I find my rest (place I find my rest)
    You are the only one that I run to
    Yes, You are my refuge Writer/s: John Cooper, Seth Mosley
