When The Earth Gives Way | Broken Pew

"When The Earth Gives Way" by Broken Pew Music. A Bible chapter that speaks deeply into how many people feel today is Psalm 46. It acknowledges turmoil rather than denying it, then calls us to trust in God, this song is closely based on it. "When The Earth Gives Way" lyrics: Verse 1 When the ground beneath us trembles And tomorrow's hard to see, When the headlines steal our sleeping And fear speaks louder than peace, There is One who does not falter, One no storm can sweep away; He has stood through every century, He will stand when earth gives way. Chorus You are our shelter, You are our strength, Closer than the breath we take. Though the mountains fall, though the oceans rise, You remain, You never change. When the world is shaken, When our courage starts to fade, We will stand because You're faithful, Even when the earth gives way. Verse 2 There are tears in many houses, Empty chairs and silent phones; Some are searching for tomorrow, Some are carrying grief alone. Yet Your mercy keeps on flowing Like a river through the night, Bringing hope where hearts are weary, Bringing dawn instead of fright. Chorus You are our shelter, You are our strength, Closer than the breath we take. Though the mountains fall, though the oceans rise, You remain, You never change. When the world is shaken, When our courage starts to fade, We will stand because You're faithful, Even when the earth gives way. Bridge Teach our restless hearts to trust You, Teach our racing minds to rest. You are God above the nations, You alone know what is best. Every kingdom, every empire, Every fear will pass away; But Your love endures forever, You are with us every day. Final Chorus You are our shelter, You are our strength, Closer than the breath we take. Though the mountains fall, though the oceans rise, You remain, You never change. Till the whole world sees Your glory, Till every knee one day will bow, We will lift Your name above us— You are our refuge now
