Protect Me Lyrics

La la la la la

God come close, come quickly

Open your ears, it's my pleasure hearing

My prayers rise like incense sweet

My hands lifted high in the evening's heat

Close to God at my mouth, oh Lord

Watch over my lips, let no evil fall

Keep me from falling into the wrong

And shield me from the seed for frown

Those who walk the path of sin

Their sweet talk don't let me hear

May the just one guide my way

And the kind one lead me day by day

Keep sin far from my head

As I pray against their deeds widespread

May their leaders face justice call

As their bones scatter before you fall

But God my eyes are fixed on you

In your refuge I find strength anew

Protect me from their wicked schemes

And their demonic plots shatter dreams

Let the wicked stumble, face defeat

While I walk away unscathed complete

God come close, hear my plea

As I trust in you to set me free
