I'm standing in my Savior's shadow He is watching over me I feel the rain, I hear the thunder As he cries for me I'm standing in my Savior's shadow Grace will lead to where I'm free I take his hand, we walk together And his light shines on me Though the devil try to break me My sweet Jesus won't forsake me When I'm in my Savior's shadow Where I'm supposed to be I'm standing in my Savior's shadow Following his footsteps there Every mountain, every ocean He hears my every prayer Though the devil try to break me My sweet Jesus won't forsake me When I'm in my Savior's shadow Where I'm supposed to be Though the devil try to break me My sweet Jesus won't forsake me When I'm in my Savior's shadow Where I'm supposed to be When I'm in my Savior's shadow I'm who I'm supposed to be
