Our Help and Our Shield

Our help and shield

To us has revealed

The nature of our hearts

So we will confess

Lift our voices to bless

His work that has set us apart

We will lift up holy hands- Hands that raise to yield

Absolute surrender

Fruit so kind and tender

Growing up from hearts that have been healed

For Christ is our hope and our shield

Christ is our hope and our shield.

Our hope is secure

Our hope is so sure

Our shield shall defend

Us beyond the end

Our hope and our shield

Has sealed and revealed

Our Lord has become our best friend

For Christ is our hope and our shield

Christ is our hope and our shield.

For Christ is our hope and our shield

Christ is our hope and our shield.
