My shield

In the silence of the night, I hear a whisper say,

Even when I roam this world, You’re never far away.

Through every storm and shadow, in valleys low and wide,

There’s a loving heart that waits, with arms open wide.

I wandered through the darkness, lost in my own way,

Thought I could face the battles, without Your light today.

Every tear I tasted, every heartache was a fight,

Yet You were right beside me, waiting for the light.

Oh, when I’m weak and weary, You’re stronger than my fear,

In every doubt and struggle, Your voice is always near.

You’re the love that lifts me high, never letting go,

In my brokenness and trials, You’re the hope I know.

You stand before my battles, a shield when darkness calls,

God, You’re always for me, through it all, through it all.

When I’ve turned my back, Lord, and chased a fleeting road,

You never turned away, carrying my heavy load.

Through the fire and the failure, You teach me to arise,

In the arms of grace and mercy, I can hear’s Your cries.

Oh, when my heart feels heavy and shadows crowd my soul,

You lift me from my chaos, restoring what was whole.

You’re the love that lifts me high, never letting go,

In my brokenness and trials, You’re the hope I know.

You stand before my battles, a shield when darkness calls,

God, You’re always for me, through it all, through it all.

In the moments of destruction, when fear comes crashing in,

You’re the fortress that I run to, where my healing can begin.

I am anchored in Your promises, a steadfast guiding light,

Through the valley and the shadows, You’re the strength I fight.

You’re the love that lifts me high, never letting go,

In my brokenness and trials, You’re the hope I know.

You stand before my battles, a shield when darkness calls,

God, You’re always for me, through it all, through it all.

So I’ll sing of Your great mercy, and I’ll walk Your open way,

With each step, I’ll remember, You’re my guide, my stay.

Through every doubt and worry, I’ll trust in what You’ve planned,

For you are always waiting, with love that understands.
