You make a way when I cannot see
You are my strength though my heart is weak
You won't let go
You take my place on this battlefield
You go before, and You're my sword, my shield
I'm not alone
You fight for me, You always have, You always have
My victory, is in Your hands, is in Your hands
The God of Heaven is my defense
No weapon formed will get to me
The enemy underneath Your feet
My God, my hope
You won't let go
You fight for me, You always have, You always have
My victory, is in Your hands, is in Your hands
The God of Heaven is my defense
You fight for me, You always have, You always have
My victory, is in Your hands, is in Your hands
The God of Heaven is my defense
I will not fear, though armies will rise
I will not fear, for You are on my side
Oh, I will not fear, though armies will rise
I will not fear, for You are on my side
And You fight for me, You always have, You always have
My victory, is in Your hands, is in Your hands
The God of Heaven is my defense
You fight for me, You always have, You always have
My victory, is in Your hands, is in Your hands
The God of Heaven is my defense
The God of Heaven is my defense
