The Lord Is My Banner And My Shield Lyrics
My enemies have surfaced
They're too numerous to count
They sound the call to arms
Thinking I have no way out
But instead of retreat
I raise the flag of victory
My battle is the Lord's
He's the one who fights for me
Chorus:
The Lord is my banner and shield
And at the mere mention of His name
All my enemies are stilled
When I lift the shield of faith
His power is revealed
Oh for the Lord is my banner and shield
How often I am tempted
To begin the clash alone
By mounting an attack
They I've laid out on my own
But before the break of dawn
Or any battle has begun
A rider brings the news
That the wars already been won
Repeat Chorus
Wrapped in God's full armor
I face the enemy
Standing firm in the confidence
That the Lord my champion fights for me
Repeat Chorus
