[Verse 1]

You go before I know

That You've even gone to win my war

You come back with the head of my enemy

You come back and You call it my victory


[Verse 2]

You go before I know

That You've even gone to win my war

Your love becomes my greatest defense

It leads me from the dry wilderness


[Pre-Chorus]

And all I did was praise

And all I did was worship

And all I did was bow down

And all I did was stay still


[Chorus]

And hallelujah, You have saved me

So much better Your way

And hallelujah, Great Defender

So much better this way


[Verse 3]

You know before I do

Where my heart can seek to find Your truth

Your mercy is the shade I'm living in

You restore my faith and hope again


[Pre-Chorus]

And all I did was praise

And all I did was worship

And all I did was bow down

And all I did was stay still


[Chorus]

And hallelujah, You have saved me

So much better Your way

And hallelujah, Great Defender

So much better this way

And hallelujah, You have saved me

So much better Your way

And hallelujah, Great Defender

So much better this way


[Bridge]

When I thought I lost me

You knew where I left me

You reintroduced me to Your love

And You picked up all my pieces

Put me back together

You are the defender of my heart

And when I thought I lost me

You knew where I left me

You reintroduced me to Your love

And You picked up all my pieces

Put me back together

You are the defender of my heart

When I thought I lost me

You knew where I left me

You reintroduced me to Your love

You picked up all my pieces

Put me back together

You are the defender of my heart
