Analysis of Refuge



I am your refuge.
I will help you in trouble.
Do not fear.  

I will shake mountains.
The sea will be rough.  
The morning will rise.
Just as the most high.  

Come see my works.
Signs, miracles, and wonders.
Your eyes will behold.  

The wars will end among the nations.
There will be famine.
Food cannot heal.  
Come to my refuge.
Have peace and be still.
