Sometimes I´m battle weary
I forget to use my shield
The arrows pierce my armor
And I stumble in the filed

A shield won´t do much good if it´s hangin´ by your side
Keep the shield of faith before you if you want to stay alive

I´ll think my life is over
But the Lord he comes to me
He heals my wounded spirit
And he sets me on my feet

A shield won´t do much good if it´s hangin´ by your side
Keep the shield of faith before you if you want to stay alive

Sometimes your battle weary
But the war´s already won
Keep your head and hold your shield high
´Til your days of life are done

A shield won´t do much good if it´s hangin´ by your side
Keep the shield of faith before you if you want to stay alive

Keep the shield of faith before you if you want to stay alive
