Heaven in My Defence - Gospel Blues of Worship

Heaven in My Defence is a Gospel Soul Blues song about standing firm when life brings trials, knowing that God's mercy, grace, and faithfulness are fighting for you. This song reminds us that when the world speaks against us, Heaven speaks on our behalf. "If God be for us, who can be against us?" — Romans 8:31 Lyrics Verse 1 Trouble came knocking at my humble door, Said I'd never rise like I had before. The road grew heavy, my strength grew thin, But a quiet peace kept stirring within. Though the storm kept calling my name, I knew my Redeemer remained the same. Pre-Chorus When the voices said I'd surely fall, I heard mercy answer every call. Chorus Heaven in my defence, standing by my side, Holding me steady through the rising tide. When I had no answer, when I had no way, Grace kept fighting for me day by day. The world brought accusations so immense, But I had Heaven in my defence. Verse 2 There were nights I walked through fields of doubt, Wondering how I'd ever make it out. Yet the Lord kept lighting one more flame, Reminding me He still knew my name. Every burden that I could not bear, I found His loving hands already there. Pre-Chorus When the darkness tried to steal my song, His faithful promise carried me along. Chorus Heaven in my defence, standing by my side, Holding me steady through the rising tide. When I had no answer, when I had no way, Grace kept fighting for me day by day. The world brought accusations so immense, But I had Heaven in my defence. Bridge No courtroom of earth can overrule His love, My witness is the Savior above. What He has spoken shall always stand, My future rests in His mighty hand. Final Chorus Heaven in my defence, I don't walk alone, The King of Glory has called me His own. Every chain is broken, every debt is gone, His faithful mercy keeps leading me on. Through every trial and circumstance, Thank God for Heaven in my defence. Outro Oh, Heaven in my defence, That's why I can stand. Heaven in my defence, Held by His nail-scarred hands.
