I AM

I AM the LORD of hosts,

Who reigns from heaven above.

My heart is full of peace and joy,

Blessings, grace and love.

I AM your Shield and Buckler;

A secret hiding place.

I come to you with kindness,

Gentleness and grace.

I AM a big strong Tower,

Safety from the storm. 

Protection from the coldest hearts,

A place to keep you warm

I AM a gentle Shepherd,

Who watches o'er My sheep.

I lift them up to my breast.

Them, safely I will keep. 

I AM a powerful Banner,

My people I defend.

My Kingdom I am building,

Of it, there is no end.

I AM the Great Provider,

I give you all you need.

A smoking flax I will not quench

Nor break the bruised reed. 

I AM the LORD, The Prince of Peace,

Making sinners kin,

Eternal life I give to them.

To heaven, they enter in. 

I AM the Lord who sanctifies -

You're holy through My Son.

The victory over sin and death; 

At Calvary it was won. 

Come to Me all you who weep.

And I will give you rest. 

You call me Abba, Father;

Through Me you will be blessed.
