"Gather to the Tower"

When darkness comes and fear surrounds
The One is e'er our hope and shield
He fights with strength for all His people
Come, your spirit to Him yield

Gather to the tower, the tower where His presence hovers in a mist so palpable 
And praise the One, our Defender, Whose power is unstoppable

When good tidings come our way
And all is right within our land
Come and praise the One, our All
For guidance from His loving hand

Gather to the tower, the tower where His presence hovers in a mist so palpable 
And praise the One, our Defender, Whose mercy is unstoppable

All glory to the gracious One
Who calls our people for His own
Perfect, holy Maker He
Sits majestic on His throne
Gather to the tower, the tower where His presence hovers in a mist so palpable 
And praise the One, our Defender, Whose goodness is unstoppable

Gather now and praise the One
Thanking Him for all He's done
A god who's higher there is none
Gather now and praise the One
Gather now and praise the One
