Original Psalm 31 Text (WEB Translation):

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.

1 In you, Yahweh, I take refuge.
Let me never be disappointed.
Deliver me in your righteousness.
2 Bow down your ear to me.
Deliver me speedily.
Be to me a strong rock,
a house of defense to save me.
3 For you are my rock and my fortress,
therefore for your name’s sake lead me and guide me.
4 Pluck me out of the net that they have laid secretly for me,
for you are my stronghold.
5 Into your hand I commend my spirit.
You redeem me, Yahweh, God of truth.

Lyrics to "Refuge in the Blues":

(Verse 1)
I've been walkin' through the valley,
Where the shadows play so cold,
Trouble's been my companion,
Got no hand left to hold.
But I heard a voice deep down,
Sayin', "Child, come on home."
In the shelter of Your love, Lord,
I ain't never been alone.

(Chorus)
I'm findin' my refuge,
In the shelter of Your grace,
Though the storms keep on comin',
I'm standin' in this place.
Oh, my spirit's in Your hands now,
No matter what they say,
I'm findin' my refuge,
In the Lord every day.

(Verse 2)
They've been whisperin' in the darkness,
Plotting evil all around,
But You keep me safe and steady,
Feet planted on solid ground.
Let 'em talk, let 'em slander,
Let 'em try to tear me down,
In Your love, I find my freedom,
Ain't no chains can keep me bound.

(Chorus)
I'm findin' my refuge,
In the shelter of Your grace,
Though the storms keep on comin',
I'm standin' in this place.
Oh, my spirit's in Your hands now,
No matter what they say,
I'm findin' my refuge,
In the Lord every day.

(Bridge)
Now I see the light's still shinin',
Through the tears I've cried so long,
You were there, Lord, always listenin',
Turned my weepin' into song.
Oh, I'm walkin' out this darkness,
With Your mercy as my guide,
In Your hands, I've found my courage,
In Your love, I'll abide.

(Chorus)
I'm findin' my refuge,
In the shelter of Your grace,
Though the storms keep on comin',
I'm standin' in this place.
Oh, my spirit's in Your hands now,
No matter what they say,
I'm findin' my refuge,
In the Lord every day.
