Wall of Fire

When I awaken feeling fragile

With an unidentifiable fear

Or I am weak and feeling threatened

And my stress has turned to tears

I will cry out, 'Jesus help me!"

From these feelings rescue me

Then I seek the help I cry out for

In His word, and He comes to me

Chorus: You' ll be a wall of fire all around me

Lord this is what you declare

You will be the glory in our midst.

Lord how I long to see you there!

Lest I run to a mirage of greener grass,

Lest I sink into a paralysis of fear,

You have awakened a cry for help

Then you answer and draw me near

Give me the pleasure of Your presence.

Give me the protection of Your fire;

If I hunger for your sustenance

You will fulfill my heart's desires

Chorus: You' ll be a wall of fire all around me

Lord this is what you declare

You will be the glory in our midst.

Lord I long to see you there

Bridge:

Lord I take pleasure in your presence

I feel your wall of fire around me,

You give me concrete evidence

In answered prayers that still astound me.

You' ll be a wall of fire all around me

Lord this is what you declare

You will be the glory in our midst.

Lord I long to see you there

Zechariah 2:4–5
