[Verse 1]
My dwelling place is God Most High
My refuge and my fortress
When plague and pestilence draw nigh
I’m hidden in His presence
When terrors fall and arrows fly
His shield will be my safety
When stones across my pathway lie
On angels’ wings I’m carried

[Verse 2]
My dwelling place is God Most High
A present help in danger
I rest secure in Love’s pure light
Beneath my Master’s favor
He pulled me from the fowler’s snare
Where sin and shame had bound me
Deceived I made my refuge there
Till fearless He came for me

[Chorus]
Wonderful, powerful, my hope and my defender
Mighty God, Emmanuel, my dwelling place forever

[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
My dwelling place is God Most High
My heart He’ll keep forever
For I am His and He is mine
I’ll never seek another
I know the Name on Whom I call
He promises to answer
With life he satisfies my soul
And crowns me with his pleasure

[Chorus]
Wonderful, powerful, my hope and my defender
Mighty God, Emmanuel, my dwelling place forever

[Outro]
Wonderful, powerful, my hope and my defender
Mighty God, Emmanuel, my dwelling place forever
My dwelling place forever
