Looking back to the days in the classroom
Side by side, watching the past bloom
From sharing desks to my very best friend
This is a loyalty that doesn't bend
Libby, the seasons just come and go
But we got a rhythm, a steady flow
Nothing changes between you and me
Rooted as deep as a willow tree
ChorusYou’re the one who encourages when the lights get dim
Always caring for others, pouring out from within
You are strong, my friend, but when the dark clouds form
Remember God is your refuge in the middle of the storm
Yeah, God is your refuge in the middle of the storm
Verse 2I see the way you hold your head high
Wiping the worry from a heavy eye
You're the soft word everybody needs to hear
But even the strong ones can feel the fear
So let me remind you of what is true
The same grace you give is waiting for you
Our friendship is constant, it won't ever fade
So rest in the shelter that heaven has made
ChorusYou’re the one who encourages when the lights get dim
Always caring for others, pouring out from within
You are strong, my friend, but when the dark clouds form
Remember God is your refuge in the middle of the storm
Yeah, God is your refuge in the middle of the storm
BridgeYou don't have to carry the weight of the world
Let the sails of your weary heart be unfurled
He is the anchor, He is the peace
Where the crashing waves and the thunder cease
Just breathe, Libby, let your spirit breathe
Final ChorusYou’re the one who encourages when the lights get dim
Always caring for others, pouring out from within
You are strong, my friend, but when the dark clouds form
Remember God is your refuge in the middle of the storm
Yeah, God is your refuge, keeping you warm
God is your refuge in the middle of the storm
