They made their promises then they walked away
Fair-weather friends are gone for good
You never cared about what others had to say

And through it all you understood

You are my prayer in times of trouble

I'll be your answer when you call
I'll shelter you, shelter me


Wake up but keep dreaming that you were born to fly
When your heart is heavy like a stone
I'll lift your burden high until you realize

That through the storm you soldiered on

You are my prayer in times of trouble

I'll be your answer when you call

Oh, you showed me that your actions

Speak louder than your words

You are my prayer in times of trouble

And I'll be your answer when you call

You are my prayer in times of trouble

I'll be your answer when you call

When you need me, oh, yeah

I'll be your answer when you call
I'll shelter you, shelter me
