In this cold world, no matter where I go
The clouds are all the same
To them, I'm just a pebble in the sand, a face without a name
Nobody gives a hang for what I say or do, but you
And in the shelter of your arms, I find peace and comfort and care
For I am wanted there (wanted there)

In this cold world, I struggle to survive
And sometimes I would fall
You think someone would lend a helping hand
They'd sooner see me crawl
But just when life itself
Seems more than I can bear, you're there
And in the shelter of your arms
I find strength and safety and then
I rise and start again (start again)

Just give me one good reason to go on living
To keep on trying, for what?
I ask you, for what?
If not for you, and all your love to see me through

When times look bad
The shelter of your arms will keep away each fear
And this cold world
Can never get me down as long as you are near

That's why I pray to God you'll never say goodbye
And I will know the shelter of your arms
And your love through all of my life
Until the day I die (day I die)
