"Shelter For My Soul" lyrics

Bernard Fanning Lyrics

"Shelter For My Soul"

At the end of my days when I'm called to go
Into the open arms of the Holy Ghost
To have lived such a life as I have known
Fortune follows me, but I'm brave no more

For my great mistakes I will surely pay
I'm running low and the devil is on my trail
When fate delivers me all I'll ask it for
Is a place to rest and shelter for my soul

Oh if I could spend my days
Free from the prison of your gaze
Then I could die a happy man

Oh if I could spend my days
Free from the shadow of my name
Then I could die a happy man

When I am released from this mortal load
I'll take my leave but I don't wanna go
When fate delivers me all I'll ask it for
A place to rest and shelter for my soul
