Deliver Us

 Lord deliver us from evil  Lord deliver us from sin
Help us flee from temptation save us from the fear of men
Day by day we will encounter trials and dangers yet untold
We must hold on to the promise as we watch God’s plans unfold

Oh lay down the shattered pieces of your broken hopes and dreams

Put away your machinations, be delivered from your schemes

Come and fix your eyes on Jesus the perfecter of your faith

Come and rest now from your labor cast yourself headlong on grace

Chorus

Soon our troubles will conform us by the anvil’s hammer blow

And the Spirit will transform us Persevering as we go.

Lord you will deliver us On this sojourn Step by step

We are redeemed, we are reconciled- In Your great Love we are kept

You are not to play the victim, you were chosen for this time

Seek to live upon the promise of the true and living vine

What men may mean for evil God will surely turn to good 

Though we struggle with this truth it will soon be understood

Come embrace the greater blessing of the presence of the Lord

He will not leave of forsake us though our lifeblood is outpoured 

He will take our souls to heaven or sustain us in this place

So we stand by the power of his love, the power of His grace

Chorus

Soon our troubles will conform us by the anvil’s hammer blow

And the Spirit will transform us Persevering as we go.

Lord you will deliver us On this sojourn Step by step

We are redeemed, we are reconciled- In Your great Love we are kept
