"Refuge" lyrics - MATISYAHU

MATISYAHU
"Refuge"

At the begining of this song the singer states that this song is coming from the psalms of King David...

Ani auni vevyone. Hashem yashav li. Ezrati, umafalti, atau
As for me, I am poor and destitute
Hashem my God will think about me. My help, my rescuer, you are

My word is like a hammer like a shattering rock
Crack through your heart and take the evil apart

From the end of the earth unto you I call
Time and again I fall, back to you I crawl
You have been a refuge for me
A tower of strength in the face of the enemy
Enemy, enemy lines I find I let myself get tied up too many times
You can't have my heart I'm taking back what's mine
I know it lie just smoke in your eye
And you saved my soul from the other side

When faint grows my heart, to a rock
That too hard for me to climb alone, lead me
For you have been a refuge for me
A tower of strength in the face of the enemy

With you I smash a troop and with my God I leap over a wall
May the king answer you on the day that you call
Stand tall, battle yawl, the clouds crawl low, all stalled
Heavens lay draped over New York like a prayer shawl
The holy one enthroned upon the praises of Israel

Pathways of my heart clogged like a traffic jam
From the start, I want to take the blockage apart
