Lord My Rock

This song is inspired by Psalm 144. I hope it inspires and reassures you, especially during times of struggle, when you feel defeated. God has already won your battle, and prepared the way for you. He is your stronghold and your deliverer, your shield in whom you can take refuge. He is your mighty fortress and subdues your enemies. Never forget that.

To God be all the glory and honor.




Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Steel on the morning sky
Boots on the ground below
My hands may shake
But I refuse to fold
The fear can call my name
The wind can bite my face
Still I will stand and brace
With fire in my veins

[Pre-Chorus]
You steady every step
You calm the storm in me
When the battle comes close
You make my soul believe

[Chorus]
Lord my Rock, hold me up
Lord my Rock, make me strong
I will not back down
I will march along
Lord my Rock, hear my cry
Lord my Rock, lead me on
With You in my heart
I am made strong!
(Lord my Rock)
(Lord my Rock)

[Verse 2]
Dust on the broken road
Rain on the iron shield
I’ve seen the dark horizon
I’ve seen the sorrow kneel
But I won’t bow my head
I won’t give in to doubt
Your name is in my chest
And it’s roaring out

[Pre-Chorus]
You steady every step
You calm the storm in me
When the battle comes close
You make my soul believe

[Chorus]
Lord my Rock, hold me up
Lord my Rock, make me strong
I will not back down
I will march along
Lord my Rock, hear my cry
Lord my Rock, lead me on
With You in my spirit
I am made strong!
(Lord my Rock)
(Lord my Rock)

[Bridge]
If the ground starts breaking
You still stand above
If the night comes shaking
You answer me with love
So I’ll lift my face now
To the One who stays
No fear gets the last word
No chain remains

[Final Chorus]
Lord my Rock, hold me up
Lord my Rock, make me strong
I will not back down
I will march along
Lord my Rock, hear my cry
Lord my Rock, lead me on
With You in my soul
I can’t go wrong!
(Lord my Rock)
(Lord my Rock)
(Lord my Rock)
Lord my Rock!

Psalm 144 (Of David)

1 Praise be to the Lord my Rock,
who trains my hands for war,
my fingers for battle.
2 He is my loving God and my fortress,
my stronghold and my deliverer,
my shield, in whom I take refuge,
who subdues peoples under me.
3 Lord, what are human beings that you care for them,
mere mortals that you think of them?
4 They are like a breath;
their days are like a fleeting shadow.
5 Part your heavens, Lord, and come down;
touch the mountains, so that they smoke.
6 Send forth lightning and scatter the enemy;
shoot your arrows and rout them.
7 Reach down your hand from on high;
deliver me and rescue me
from the mighty waters,
from the hands of foreigners
8 whose mouths are full of lies,
whose right hands are deceitful.
9 I will sing a new song to you, my God;
on the ten-stringed lyre I will make music to you,
10 to the One who gives victory to kings,
who delivers his servant David.
From the deadly sword 11 deliver me;
rescue me from the hands of foreigners
whose mouths are full of lies,
whose right hands are deceitful.
12 Then our sons in their youth
will be like well-nurtured plants,
and our daughters will be like pillars
carved to adorn a palace.
13 Our barns will be filled
with every kind of provision.
Our sheep will increase by thousands,
by tens of thousands in our fields;
14 our oxen will draw heavy loads.[b]
There will be no breaching of walls,
no going into captivity,
no cry of distress in our streets.
15 Blessed is the people of whom this is true;
blessed is the people whose God is the Lord.
