(Lyrics) Psalm 18 It Is God Version 1
Words and Music by Leslie aka Jesse Hughes ©
(Adapted from Psalm 18)

The Lord is my strength, my rock, my fortress and my deliverer.
(The Lord is my strength, my shield, my rock, and my deliverer)
You know I love the Lord and God is the cornerstone that I trust,
It’s where I’ll place my faith while I await my loving Lord.
My loving Lord, my loving Lord,
While I await my loving Lord

I called out to the Lord, who is worthy to be praised,
I have faith in the Lord, and from my enemies I’ll be saved.
The cords of death entangled me;
The flooding waters were all around me.
In my distress I called upon my loving Lord ;
My loving Lord, My loving Lord
And on my God in whom I trust.

The earth trembled and quaked,
and the foundations of the mountains began to shake;
The Lord my shield and strength was near,
He was angry and my enemies began to fear,
His thunderous power, from heaven  came,
And the voice of the Most High uttered the name,
Of God, my cornerstone, and the God in whom I trust
My God and cornerstone,
It is God, who arms me with strength
So I can bend a bow of bronze,
It is God, he trains my hands for battle,
I can march against a troop.
It is God, I can scale a wall,
I can stand up on the heights
It is God, who keeps my lamp burning,
And turns my darkness into light.

I am a New Order, New Age and New Covenant Gospel Rock and Roller preaching the Gospel to the world in the tradition of Dylan and Springsteen.  My songs metaphorically interpret the Bible and book of Revelation, helping to shine a light upon Bob Dylan’s lyrical clues.  I serve the Spirit of the Lord, and dedicate my eternal Star to serving my King the Holy Spirit of Truth (Isaiah chapter 11 and 2 Corinthians 3:17) and proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor, the day of God’s Salvation and the New Covenant (Luke 4:18-19, Isaiah chapter 61, 2 Corinthians 6:1-2, Jeremiah 31:31-34, Hebrews 8:7-13) by measuring the temple, unsealing the scroll in the book of Revelation and preaching the true metaphoric interpretation of the Gospel to the world inspired by Mt 13:35 and Ps 78:2 that states “I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world."
