Christ Will Be My Hideaway (Psalm 91) HD 1080p

As the coronavirus pandemic began to affect the world, my good friend from the UK, Tim Chester, sent me some lyrics he had written, taken from Psalm 91. He subtitled it: "A song for the coronavirus outbreak based on Psalm 91." I began working on a melody but couldn't land on something I really liked. So I ran it by a few people and after a number of lyric and melodic changes we ended up with what we recorded here.

How reassuring it is to know that because "God in power raised my Savior," we can say, "I no longer fear the grave."

I will dwell within the shelter
Of the God who reigns above.
I will rest beneath the shadow
Of the mighty King of love.
Though a sickness hides in darkness
Though a plague destroys by day
I will stand upon his promises
Christ will be my hideaway.

In You, my God, I trust, You are strong and here with us
In You, my hope remains, Christ will be my hideaway

Angels gather to protect me
When they hear my Savior call
Sovereign hands are ever ready
To uphold me should I fall
Safe beneath his wings of refuge
All my fears are kept at bay
I am shielded by his faithfulness,
Christ will be my hideaway

Though a thousand fall around me
Though death looks me in the eye
Evil shall not have the vict’ry
While the Lord is at my side
God in power raised my Savior
I no longer fear the grave
Through this fragile life and evermore
Christ will be my hideaway
Christ, You are my hideaway
