I Come in the Name of the Lord

**Verse 1**

In the valley stood a giant, armor shining in the sun

Goliath roared his challenge, and the Israelites would run

But a shepherd boy named David, with a sling and stones in hand

Said, “The Lord who saved me once before can save me again”

Chorus

“I come in the name of the Lord of Lords,

The God of the battle, who needs no swords.

You trust in weapons, I trust in grace,

And I will run with courage to take my place.”

Not by power, not by might,

But by His Spirit, I will fight!

The battle is the Lord’s—forevermore!

I come in the name of the Lord!

**Verse 2**

David faced the giant, heard the taunts and saw the spear

But he remembered God’s protection, felt His presence near

He spoke with faith and courage, “You come with sword and might

But I come in the name of God, and He will win this fight”

**Chorus**

I trust in God, my refuge and my shield

He’s my deliverer, my fortress in the field

Though the world may tremble, I will not be afraid

For the battle is the Lord’s, and He will make a way

**Bridge**

With a stone and simple sling, David let it fly

The giant fell before him, the Lord was lifted high

God’s power, not by sword, delivered once again

He proved to all the nations, He’s the strength of humble men.

**Chorus**

“I come in the name of the Lord of Lords,

The God of the battle, who needs no swords.

You trust in weapons, I trust in grace,

And I will run with courage to take my place.”

Not by power, not by might,

But by His Spirit, I will fight!

The battle is the Lord’s—forevermore!

I come in the name of the Lord!

**Outro**

So when giants rise before you, and fear is closing in

Remember David’s story, and trust the Lord within

For God will fight your battles, His promises are true

He’s the rock of ages—He will deliver you.
