[Verse 1]
ADgainst the God who Arules the Bmsky
I Dfought with hands upF#mlifted Ahigh;
DesDpised the mention Aof His Bmgrace,
Too Dproud to seek a Ahiding Dplace!
But Aan eternal Dcounsel Bmran:
"Almighty Alove, arDrest that C#dimman!"
I Dfelt the arrows Aof disBmgrace
And Dfound I had no Ahiding Dplace.
[Verse 2]
IDndignant Justice sAtood in Bmview;
To DSinai's fiery F#mmount I Aflew;
But DJustice cried with Afrowing Bmface,
"This Dmountain is no Ahiding Dplace."
Ere Along a heavenly Dvoice I Bmheard,
And Amercy for my Dsoul C#dimappeared,
Which Dled me on with Asmiling Bmface
To JDesus Christ, my Ahiding Dplace.
[Chorus]
My BmJesus Ais my Dhiding Bmplace,A  
SurrF#mounding me with steadfast Dsus2love and Agrace.
In Bmdeath He'll Abe my Dhiding BmplaceG  
And BmI shall ever Dsus2see His Asmiling Dface.
[Verse 3]
On DHim almighty Avengeance Bmfell:
EDnough to sink the F#mworld to Ahell,
He Dbore it for His Achosen Bmrace,
And Dthus became their Ahiding Dplace.
Should Astorms of mighty Dvengeance Bmroll
And Ashake this earth from Dpole to C#dimpole,
No Dflaming bolt could Adaunt my Bmface
For DJesus is my Ahiding Dplace.
