Shield My Soul

Hear me, my Lord, listen to my cry Hear my prayer and may your eyes see what is right There's nothing I need to hide You know, I've never planned any evil You've probed my heart and found nothing wrong Please lead me where I belong Show me the wonders of your great love Lift me up to the sky, show me what is above The clouds and the distant sky I call on you and I know you will answer Show me your endless love in wonderful ways For the rest of my days Oh Lord, hear my call Shield my soul Don't let me fall Guard me as you would guard your own eyes Expose the wicked and their lies Hide me in the shadow of your wings Show me please where the river springs Protect me from my enemies Oh Lord, I'm longing for your peace They're watching me and want to track me down Don't let them throw me to the ground Arise, oh Lord, bring them to their knees With your sword, rescue me from my enemies From those who disrupt the peace You know, my steps have held fast to your paths All along the way I did not fall Oh please hear my call
