Spencer Roth's 'You Are My Strength' is a worship song directly inspired by Psalm 91. It speaks of finding safety and rest in God's shelter, even when surrounded by fear or darkness. The lyrics emphasize God as a protector and defender who holds the believer securely. The song was written during a time of global uncertainty, making its message of trust and divine strength particularly relevant. It reassures listeners that victory belongs to God and that He is a constant source of strength in every battle.

Song Story: 

"In a weekly co-writing session, a friend came in with Psalm 91 & said ?We need to write a song about this?. I didn?t know how badly I needed this song to be written until we wrote it. I also didn't know how badly the world would need this song to be written with the uncertain state we find ourselves in right now. "You Are My Strength" is straight from Psalm 91, a direct reminder from Scripture of who our God truly is."




V1

Here beneath your shelter I can rest within your love

Deep inside your shadow I am safe

In the secret places is where You?re meeting me

When I?m with you I am not afraid


PRE

Though all around me fall

You set my feet to stand

You hold my every breath within your hand


CH

Under your covering

You will hold onto me

Through the battle

Your arms carry me

My defender

You are my strength


V2

When darkness overwhelms me and arrows fly by day

No matter what surrounds me I am safe


BR

I know, I know

Victory is yours

I know, I know

Victory is sure

I know, I know, I know
