Take my affections and take my pride
It's hard to say I'm doing fine when I ain't doing right
Despite the size of time I've had since the day
That I was ready to die in my lovers lap yeah

Die in my lovers lap, thought that I could not be seen
Felt like I could not pay you to simply remember me
But You stepped forward Lord, yeah You set me free
I guess that's the remembrance that I needed

And as I cross this ocean
I will learn to love
You will be my fortress
And I'll will be Your son

My fortress, my fortress, my fortress
