You Are My Life Songtext
von Fred Hammond

The evening now in sight
I earnestly contend to just stay grounded (stay grounded)
With the absence of the light
The enemy moves in, and I am surrounded (surrounded)
With a weary heart, the battle goes on
But I will rest in the words that You spoke to me

You are my life (You are my life)
You are my strength (You are my strength)
My faithful defense and my cover
My shield and shelter
Savior and shepherd
You′re my life and my strength (Jesus, You are)
Jesus You are

The warfare rages on
The toll it takes is that my heart is tender (my heart is tender)
My spirit yet is strong
But as usual my flesh wants to surrender (surrender all, surrender)
Though it's hard to wait, on your word I′ll depend
And believe with my heart until the end


You are my life
You are my strength
My faithful defense and my cover
My shield and shelter
Savior and shepherd
You're my life and my strength
Jesus You are

In my distress, I called on You
And from Your throne
You heard me and saved me

(You are, you are, you are) You are my life
(You are, you are, you are) my faithful defense and my cover
(Jesus You are) my shield and shelter
(Savior and shepherd)
You're my life (Jesus, You are)

(You are, you are, you are) You are my life
(You are, you are, you are) my faithful defense and my cover
(Jesus You are) my shield and shelter
Savior and shepherd
You′re my life (Jesus, You are)

You are my life (You are my life)
You are my strength (You are my strength)
You are my life (You are my life)
You are my strength (You are my strength)
