About this Hymn
How often are we tempted, in the midst of difficulties and opposition, to rely on our own resources, wisdom, and strength. But in Psalm 62 King David models the kind of response that pleases God: acknowledging one's need, expressing confidence in the Lord, and waiting for his deliverance. We can trust in him to be our refuge not just some of the time but at all times. – Bob Kauflin
Lyrics
Verse 1
When the enemy surrounds and my heart grows faint within, when the darkness overwhelms and my fears are pressing in, I will trust in you, O Lord. In the silence I will wait, I will stand upon your word.
Chorus 1
You're my solid rock and my salvation, my steadfast hope that won't be shaken; my soul will wait, my soul will wait for you.
Verse 2
You're my stronghold and my shield, in the midst of ev'ry threat; though the wicked never yield, they will vanish like a breath. Yes, I know the outcome's sure, Satan's evil plans will fail, in your power I'm secure.
Chorus 2
You're my solid rock and my salvation, my steadfast hope that won't be shaken; my soul will wait, my soul will wait for you. You're my comfort when I feel forsaken, my refuge and my sure salvation; my soul will wait, my soul will wait for you.
Verse 3
This is love I can't explain, this is mercy unreserved, through your sacrifice so great I have peace that's undeserved. For the battle has been won, and I fear no shame or loss, now the sting of death is gone.
Ending
Pouring out our hearts before you, we will trust in you. Perfect Savior, strong defender, we will trust in you.
