If I fled, you'd guard my refuge shore
No reason now to flee once more
You say, flee to hills where evil lurks
Where wicked arrows aim and smirk
Flee to the mountains where
Flee to the mountains where darkness dwells
Where arrows fly and evil spells
But God remains, his throne unmoved in charge
His case is justice proved
The world may falter, goodness fades
Yet God's abode, no change pervades
He watches all, no blink, no rest
In Adam's frame, he sees each test
He tests the righteous, tests the vile
Where cheating hearts his wrath defile
Those failing face a fiery rain
A desert wind, a parching pain
Flee to the mountains where darkness dwells
Where arrows fly and evil spells
But God remains, his throne unmoved in charge
His case is justice proved
His business is to set things right
To straighten paths and bring the light
When standing firm will meet his sight
No fear, no shame, no need to hide
