Alison Krauss and Union Station Lyrics
"Shield of Faith"

(Ron Block)

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 hanging by your side
Keep the shield of faith before you
If you want to stay alive.

--- Mandolin Instrumental ---

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 hanging by your side
Keep the shield of faith before you
If you want to stay alive.

--- Guitar - Fiddle Instrumental ---

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

A shield won't do much good
If it's hanging by your side
Keep the shield of faith before you
If you want to stay alive...
