Analysis of Thank you for being my shield
Baby Girl 1983 (Ohio)
Lord you have me here week to my knees,
Begging for forgiveness please ,
Have mercy Father (pause)
Please forgive me and my enemies,
I give you all my pain from back in the days ,
I’m so tired of my carnal worldly ways,
Without you I’m alone and afraid,
Father please dry my eyes,
I want to go home with you in paradise,
In you is where I want to run and hide ,
Just like in the book of Mathew , I believe that you will be on my side ,
I thank you so much for blessing me,
Father in your domain, I feel so spiritually free,
Mark 1:36, give me security in your protection against the enemies,
I know you have been here walking beside me ,
holding my hand
I thank you for saving me from sinking deep into quicksand.
Deuteronomy 31:6 (pause)
thank you for your promise , that you would never leave or forsake me
I thank you father for rescuing me
and setting my spirit free..
