While contemplating the Lord during this time of Covid 19 isolation, I received a picture in my mind of the Lord Jesus walking through this earth, battling the unseen enemies all around. And I realized that the church, as his body, is in Him. We are in Christ as he fights the battle. We have eternal life (Jesus Christ) right now, so in either death or life, we are safe and sound in Him.
I jotted down a few lines, trying to capture the essence of the picture in my mind. As I played with a melody and drum beat, one verse seemed enough, making the chorus most prominent. So I decided to include the bridge as the intro as well. And lo and behold, this song was born.
The creativity of the Lord Jesus in a yielded vessel is amazing to me…believing that with his life in us, as we trust Him enough to pick up a pen, He will be expressed. I hope the saints are as edified by the song as I have been.
