Micah Tyler, People & Songs, and Charity Gayle's song 'My God Fights for Me' tells stories from the Bible—David facing Goliath, Daniel in the lion's den, and the woman with the alabaster jar—to illustrate that God fights for His people. The lyrics emphasize that human weakness is overcome by divine strength, and that victory belongs to the Lord. It encourages listeners to trust God in their own battles, whether giants, traps, or shame, because the battle is already won. The song is a declaration of faith and reliance on God's power rather than human ability.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I was just a shepherd boy

Without a shield, without a sword

Fed up with the giant?s voice

Screaming curses to the Lord

Now I walked down that hill alone

With a pocket full of river stones

But what that Philistine couldn?t see

Is what I had was more than me

See, on my own I?m weak

But my God fights for me


I was servant to the king

Interpreting his crazy dreams

I won?t worship mortal men

So they threw me in the lion?s den

Vicious teeth were all I saw

Til something came and shut their jaws

You couldn?t find a scratch on me

In fact that night I fell asleep

When morning came and shocked them all

?Cause my God fights for me


I stumbled into room

With alabaster and my wounds

I could feel their judging eyes

As I fell before the Christ

I poured my oil upon His feet

I didn?t care who saw me weep

I gave up all I had that day

He should?ve sent me on my way

Instead He lifted up my head

?Cause my God fights for me


He?s my shield, He?s my sword

The victory is the Lord?s

He?s my shield, He?s my sword

The victory is the Lord?s


So what?s your story here today

And what?s the giant in your way

Are you trapped and can?t get out

Are you staring down a lion?s mouth

Can you stand before the Lord

Or do you need to hit the floor

It don?t matter what you?ve done

The battle is already won


So lift your voice with me and sing

That my God fights for me

So lift your voice in victory

My God fights for me
