O Escudo
Carol Braga
The Shield
Throughout my life
Oh Lord, I will praise You
For Your breath is my life
And I will never tire
I can hear Your voice
It's sweeter than honey
That takes me out of this pit
And leads me to heaven
I've seen fire and earthquakes
Strong wind that passed by
I've faced many dangers
But Your voice calmed me
You give orders to the stars
And to the sea, its limits
I feel so secure
In Your arms, oh Most High
There are no bolts
Nor doors that close before Your voice
There are no diseases, no guilt
That stand before us
And the storm calms down
In the voice of the One who created everything
For Your word is pure
A shield for those who believe in Him
There are no bolts
Nor doors that close before Your voice
There are no diseases, no guilt
That stand before us
And the storm calms down
In the voice of the One who created everything
For His word is pure
A shield for those who believe in Him
Shield and protection
Shield and protection
Shield and protection
Strong tower is the name of the Lord
And the name of the Lord
The righteous run to it
And will be saved
A very present help in time of trouble
He is
He is
He is
We trust in who You are in Your faithfulness
In Your nature we trust in Your power
You who govern our universe and have our name written
In the palm of Your hands oh oh
We trust eternally forever you never failed, never faltered
There are no bolts
Nor doors that close before Your voice
There are no diseases, no guilt
That stand before us
And the storm calms down
In the voice of the One who created everything
For Your word is pure Lord
A shield for those who believe in Him
