Sanctuary by Michelle Tumes Lyrics

Oh...
Oh, yeah
Oh...
Oh, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah

I never knew the power of forgiveness
I'd never felt something so strong
I'd only spent years of resistance
Back in the storm of my past
When I was far from Your grasp

I spent a lifetime searching for a sanctuary
Running for cover, running from the rain
You gave me shelter
You found me when I'd lost my bearings
Here in Your sanctuary, I will remain

Wasn't it You watching over me
Deep in the throes of dеspair
Wasn't it You calling for me
Back when I barely could hеar
Your whisper cut through the fear
I spent a lifetime searching for a sanctuary
Running for cover, running from the rain
You gave me shelter
You found me when I'd lost my bearings
Here in Your sanctuary, I will remain

Oh...
Oh, yeah
Oh...

Running for cover, running from the rain
Running to Your shelter again

Oh, once I thought that I was drowning
In the wake of all my doubt
As I slipped from sight, my heart was pounding
Till Your mercy pulled me out

Oh...
Oh, yeah
Oh...
You pulled me out
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh...
I spent a lifetime
Oh, yeah
Oh...
I spent a lifetime searching for a sanctuary
Running for cover, running from the rain
You gave me shelter
You found me when I'd lost my bearings
Here in Your sanctuary, I will remain

I spent a lifetime searching for a sanctuary
Running for cover, running from the rain
You gave me shelter
You found me when I'd lost my bearings
Here in Your sanctuary, I will remain

I will remain
I will remain

Oh...
Oh, yeah
Oh...
Oh, yeah, yeah...
