Dark the clouds we see approaching,
Fierce and strong the winds that blow;
Wise are they who find the refuge-
Peace forever there to know.
God has sounded out His warnings
Ever since the fall of man;
Pointing to the only refuge-
And that refuge is a Man!
There was none in earth or heaven
But that One, that One alone,
Who could win the bitter battle-
Who for us could sins atone.
His the power; He has conquered;
His the victory for His own-
He Himself the only Refuge-
Other refuge there is none.
