Story behind the song
Shield and Song is a heartfelt worship anthem that testifies of Gods protection and unending love. Blending raw honesty with hope, the verses tell of a soul rescued from pride and guarded by His shield, while the chorus becomes a declaration of rest, surrender, and worship in His presence. With soaring melodies and spoken words woven into the refrain, the song magnifies the Lord as refuge, King, and consuming fire. It is both a shield against despair and a song of praise rising to heaven.
Lyrics
Shield and Song Verse 1: In the dark, while drowning in my pride, You called my name and drew me to Your side. Like a shield, You guard me from their darts, They came to steal, but You sealed me with Your mark. Chorus: I find rest in Your arms, (When lies surrounded me, You lifted me and opened my eyes.) Lord, I give You my heart. (There is none like You in heaven or on earth, my King.) I find rest in Your arms, (You gave Your life so I could live. Who is like You, Mighty One?) Lord, Im safe in Your heart. (Forever, my God, I will worship You. Let Your holy fire consume my soul.) Verse 2: At dawn, before the birds lift up their song, I bow in praise to You I still belong. And when the night paints the sky with fading light, Ill dance with joy You bore my cross that night. *Chorus* Bridge: Holy, holy is the Lord Most High, Exalted, glorified. We lift Your holy name on high, Forever magnified. *Chorus* Copyright 2025 Richard Shekari Written, produced and performed by Richard Shekari.
