Written by ELI-J
Conductor: Korede
Key C
Verse 1
Lord, you're our dearest shepherd
And so we shall not want
Lord, you're the strength of our lives
Of whom shall we be afraid?
You gave us a Kingdom
That cannot be moved
We your saints, thank you, Lord
For the conquests in your name
Chorus (once)
Lord God, you are with us
We will not be dismayed
Lord Jesus, we are the fruits and splendour of your deeds
Master, you kept your word
Just as you said, you would
All that we would desire,
You willed it all to us
(Interlude- twice)
Verse 2
We're not afraid of what's before us
The life we now live is by faith
And knowing you have gone before us
To make the crooked places straight,
Choir: Every day is a glorious day
Solo: The glory we have is not of this world
Choir: For the world and its lust will pass away,
But we won't fade away
Chorus (twice)
Lord God, you are with us
We will not be dismayed
Lord Jesus, we are the fruits and splendour of your deeds
Master, you kept your word
Just as you said, you would
All that we would desire,
You willed it all to us
Outro:
Solo:
All we've known
Is your voice
And there's not been a feeble one through the years
All because
Choir:
Lord, you're our dearest shepherd
