This week’s featured song story comes to us from Abby Robertson. We’re excited to share with you the story behind her song “Sanctuary.”
“The craziest thing was that the hotel that we were in was called Sanctuary. He was right there with us the whole time. You can’t deny that God doesn’t see you when something like that happens. As broken as it was of a situation, He met us right there.” – Abby Robertson

“Sanctuary” – Single

“Sanctuary” Lyrics
You gave me a place
Where I could find rest
Your love gave me strength
When I ran out of breath
Nobody knows me like you do
Jesus, I run to you
Wherever I am There You are
Whenever I fall it’s into your arms
When clouds around me gather
You are my shelter
Even in the waves of a raging sea
You’re the calm where I find peace
When waters rise around me
You are my Sanctuary
You are my sanctuary
Jesus, you are
You’re my hideaway
When I can’t take it anymore
Yea with just a whisper of
Your name You settle the storms
Nobody knows me like you do
Jesus, I run to you
Wherever I am There You are
Whenever I fall it’s into your arms
When clouds around me gather
You are my shelter
Even in the waves of a raging sea
You’re the calm where I find peace
When waters rise around me
You are my sanctuary
You are my sanctuary
Jesus, you are
You’re my hiding place
I’m always safe
I’m Safe in Your arms
You’ll never change
You stay the same It’s just who You are
Wherever I am there you are
Whenever I fall it’s into your arms
Wherever I am There You are
Whenever I fall it’s into your arms
When clouds around me gather
You are my shelter
Even in the waves of a raging sea
You’re the calm where I find peace
When waters rise around me
You are my sanctuary
You are my sanctuary
Jesus, you are
You’re my hiding place
And I’m always safe
My sanctuary
