From the recording REFUGE
For several years, as a family we attended the South West London Vineyard church where we met so many inspiring and influential people who became dear friends. Brian Doerksen is one of them and is one of the most prolific and well-known composers of contemporary church music. Faithful One is arguably his most popular song. It is not only a wonderful match of great lyrics to melody but is also a joy to sing. The lines ‘You are my Rock in times of trouble’ and ‘I call out to you’ are a large part of the inspiration for this album. A huge shout out to my wife Chris for arranging and accompanying me on this track!
Lyrics
Faithful one, so unchanging
Ageless one, you are my rock of peace
Lord of all I depend on you
I call out to you, again and again
I call out to you, again and again.
You are my rock in times of trouble
You lift me up when I fall down
All through the storm
Your love is, the anchor
My hope is in You alone.
Faithful one, so unchanging
Ageless one, you are my rock of peace
Lord of all I depend on you
I call out to you, again and again
I call out to you, again and again.
You are my rock in times of trouble
You lift me up when I fall down
All through the storm
Your love is, the anchor
My hope is in You alone.
Your love is, the anchor
My hope is in You
My hope is in You
Our hope is in You alone
