They say I'm done, they say I'm through
Many rise against him, yeah that's true
But I ain't running, I just move how grace do
Even when the hate loud his voice through
They say God won't help him, man that's cap
I Seen him pulled me out of the trap
Lifted my head when I couldn't bounce back
She around my soul like bulletproof glass

But you are, oh Lord
Are a shield around me
My glory and the lifter of my head
I cried out loud and you heard me
I lay down, slept and still ain't dead

But you are, oh Lord
Are a shield around me
My glory and the lifter of my head
I cried out loud and you heard me
I woke up mercy ain't fled

Ten thousand surround me, but I stay calm
Cause I know who keep my arm
Fear can't live where faith belong
I'm protected even when life go wrong
Arise, oh Lord, don't delay
Break every chain that block my way
Swing swords, but you still slay
Oh I rest you fight that's the play
Salvation ain't in power fame
Send the one who call my name
Blessing on your people sing
Still breathing, still in the game

But you are, oh Lord
Are a shield around me
My glory and the lifter of my head
I cried out loud and you heard me
I lay down, slept and still ain't dead

But you are, oh Lord
Are a shield around me
My glory and the lifter of my head
I cried out loud and you heard me
I woke up mercy ain't fled

You kept me through the nigth again
You kept me through
You kept me through the nigth again
I'm covered, amen

You kept me through the nigth again
You kept me through
You kept me through the nigth again
I'm covered, amen

But you, oh Lord
Are a shield around me
My glory and the lifter of my head
I cried out loud and you heard me
I lay down, slept and still ain't dead

But you, oh Lord
Are a shield around me
My glory and the lifter of my head
I cried out loud and you heard me
I woke up mercy ain't fled
