The Lord Is My Rock

by Joseph Mathias Release year: 2026 


Verse 1

The chains of death fastened upon me
The snares of sin laid their grip on me
To the Lord I shouted
To the God of my rescue
From his temple the Most High heard my voice

Verse 2

The heavens bowed; God came down to earth
The thunder rolled as his Word went forth
From on high he sought me
From the waters he drew me
And delivered me from my enemy

Chorus 1

The Lord is my rock and my fortress
And my deliverer
My God and my rock in whom I take refuge
My shield and my salvation
And I shall not be moved
And I shall not be shaken

Verse 3

Now by your strength I can crush a troop
And by your might bend a bow of bronze
With the Lord beside me
Demons scatter before me
God my champion trains my hands for war

Chorus 2

The Lord is my rock and my fortress
And my deliverer
My God and my rock in whom I take refuge
My shield and my salvation

Chorus 2

My rock, and my fortress
And my deliverer
My God and my rock in whom I take refuge
My shield and my salvation
And I shall not be moved
And I shall not be shaken

Bridge

The Lord my God lightens my darkness
The Lord my God lightens my darkness
The Lord my God lightens my darkness
The Lord my God lightens my darkness

Verse 4

The Lord, He lives; blessed be my rock!
Exalted be Christ my victory!
You will reign forever
King above every nation
While your people sing praises to your name

Chorus 3

The Lord is my rock and my fortress
And my deliverer
My God and my rock in whom I take refuge
My shield and my salvation

Chorus 3

My rock, and my fortress
And my deliverer
My God and my rock in whom I take refuge
My shield and my salvation
And I shall not be moved
And I shall not be shaken
