A song I find myself singing a lot...

My child, are you discouraged by the sorrows of the day?

Does it seem that life is crumbling; the skies have turned to gray?

Don't forget I gave you promises, to guide you every hour.

In the moment of your heartbreak,let Me show you my great power!

.

And I will be your shield,when the battle rages on.

And I will be your light, when the way ahead is dark.

I will be your strong tower, and guide you every hour.

Just place your life completely in my hands.

.

I know it won't be easy, I never said it would.

But my grace will always be there; my plans for you are good.

Remember that your weaknesses are perfect in my sight,

only when you yield them to Me can I turn them into might.

.

And I will be your shield, when the battle rages on.

And I will be your light, when the way ahead is dark.

I will be your strong tower, and guide you every hour.

Just place your life completely in my hands.

.

And someday you'll understand, why I sent this trial,

and someday you will see the end, and know it's all worthwhile!

.

And I will be your shield, when the battle rages on.

And I will be your light, when the way ahead is long.

I will be your strong tower, and guide you every hour.

Just place your life completely in my hands.
