In the shadow of the steeple,
my worries war and rage
My feelings run me ragged at the ending of this day;
My anger boils hot at the injustice I have seen.
I have tried and often failed to shine in this world of need.
MY burden is so heavy, my heart, it breaks in two.
These troubles are too much, I don't know what I can do.
But then I hear You calling at the closing of the day,
"Come unto Me. The weary ones I will never turn away."
In the shadow of the steeple I feel the shadow of the Rock--
As You lift my burden from me and nail it to the cross.
O Lord I find my shelter forever in Your love.
Fill me with Your grace that others they may see,
reflected in my life, the love, O Lord of Thee.
