Verse 1

When death came knocking
At my door
And sin and grave
Were keeping score
My debt piled high
God waged a war
His weapon the cross
My sorrows he bore

Pre Chorus

When fear and doubt
Try to vex me
I won’t be blinded by unbelief
Calvary's hill speaks victory
His condemnation
Was my liberty

Chorus

Jesus my shield
Jesus my strength
My very help
In time of need
Jesus the one
Right by side
I’m gonna live I will not die

Verse 2

Lift my eyes to the King
Who has healing in His wings
When temptation taunts again
Here is my yes
Your word my amen

Tag

God here's my yes
Your word my amen

Chorus

Jesus my shield
Jesus my strength
My very help
In time of need
Jesus the one
Right by side
I’m gonna live I will not die

Bridge 1

For the law
Of the spirit of life
Set me free in Jesus Christ
From the law
Of sin and death
Hallelujah He paid my debt

Bridge 2

Even when darkness
Tries to assail
No power in hell can prevail
Praise the One
Who makes me new
God did what the law
Could never do
