Hello everyone š.
Welcome to another beautiful week again on Hive open mic,it's always a pleasure to be here in every week and this is one of my favorite community on Hive so far,I try not to miss any week without posting a content on this community and so far since I became a hiver I never missed a week without posting and it's always a pleasure.
Shield for me is a very beautiful song that has been covered and ministered by many gospel singers over time,when I was preparing for this record I didn't know who's version of the song to sing,so I just felt like since it's a song we all know then let me just do the chorus and make it a beautiful one āļøš,but I'll be posting the link of Byron cage cause before I could here any artist singing this song I already heard that of Byron cage and that sound is just so powerful.
It's always a popular verse in the bible we often times pray with which is psalm 3:3 I could remember wen I use to pray with this bible verse everyday morning and night,the lord has always been our protector,father, advocate,fighter and comforter,we often times we don't understand how shielded we are by God if only our eye's could open for a short time to see what danger we are going
Through everyday,some times you just sit and have a retrospect and you'll realize how much grace you've enjoyed so far,there's a devine security built for us by God and this song tell us that we on our own don't know how to plan our safety for a second.
Thank you so much for watching š.
SONG LYRIC:
There comes a time in every believer's life
That trials are gonna come
But God said, "I'm will not leave you comfortless
So be encouraged"
⦠Lord, how are they increased that trouble me
Many are they that rise up against me
Many there be which say of my soul
There is no help for him in God
⦠But Thou o Lord art a shield for me
My glory, You lift my head
But Thou o Lord art a shield for me
You're my glory, the lifter up of my head
⦠I cried to the Lord with my voice
And He heard me out of His Holy Hill
I'd laid me down and I slept
I awaked, for the Lord sustained me
⦠But Thou o Lord art a shield for me
My glory, You lift my head
But Thou o Lord art a shield for me
My glory, the lifter up of my head
⦠I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people
(That set themselves against me roundabout)
God is not giving you the spirit of fear
(I will not) but power (be afraid of) love
And a sound (ten) mind (thousands of people)
(That set themselves against me roundabout)
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh
⦠my glory, yeah
(My glory, You lift my head)
Can I get a witness that knows that He is your shield
But Thou o Lord art a shield for me
My glory, the lifter up of my head
⦠thank You for lifting
(Thank You for lifting) thank You for lifting
(Thank You for lifting my head) when I cried
(Thank You for lifting) when I prayed
Thank You for lifting) didn't understand
(Thank You for lifting), You lifted, (my head)
