Thou art my shelter when sorrow calls
Thou art my unknown grave where I belong
My heart and heaven refrain from song
Until I'm guided into thy bright

Blood-red lines against my ivory skin
Hear my heart still beating from within

Bridges may burn heavens might fall down
I will return I will be home-bound
I'll cross the land the boundless sea to sail towards thee

Shelter of bliss saviour of my soul
You are my world you are my unknown grave
Where my heart is home

Slowly sinks the blade into my chest
Lift it up to bury in your hands

With every beat away from thee
I say my rhyme and take my leave

Bridges may burn heavens might fall down
I will return I will be home-bound
I'll cross the land the boundless sea to sail towards thee

Shelter of bliss saviour of my soul
You are my world you are my unknown grave
Where my heart is home

Hush be silent no tears nor tempest sighs will do
Don't weep don't plead only thy bright eyes

Once I walked with destiny but that was all in vain
Now love does have a name
Lift my beating heart out of its chest
With you it can be laid to rest

Bridges may burn heavens might fall down
I will return I will be home-bound
I'll cross the land the boundless sea to sail towards thee

Shelter of bliss saviour of my soul
You are my world you are my unknown grave
Where my heart is home home where I belong

Thou art my shelter
Thou art my saviour
Thou art where I belong
