Grace Like A Shield

But let all who take refuge in you rejoice;

let them ever sing for joy,

and spread your protection over them,

that those who love your name may exult in you.

For you bless the righteous, O LORD;

you cover him with favor as with a shield.

Psalm 5:11-12

You see me, dear Father

and You call me by name;

through Jesus You’ve rescued me

from brokenness and shame.

And now I am different

by all that You’ve done...

redeemed, complete, and holy

by the merits of Your Son.

I did not deserve

the smile on Your face;

It is all a gift

of Your mercy and grace.

To Jesus I surrender,

my soul I will yield;

now I fear nothing for

Your grace is my shield.

Today is uncertain..

tomorrow’s unclear...

yet I am unworried...

Your grace is right here!

Covered by grace now

I am not afraid.

I will look to my future...

to the home Jesus made.
