The Lord is a warrior
The Lord is mighty in battle
The Lord is a warrior
The Lord of hosts is He

My Lord is a fortress
He is a sun and a shield
The Lord is a Deliverer
To those who put their trust in Him

He gives strength unto His people
He guards His own with His Right Hand
The Angel of the Lord camps around the ones who fear Him
And delivers them

The Lord of Hosts is He
The Lord of Hosts is He



Behind the Song:
'This song is meant to counter the modern theological aberration that sets the Mercy and Love of God over His Righteousness and Justice. All of God's attributes are equally ultimate (He is not more loving than He is just), and my hope is that our view of who God is would be restored to a Biblical balance by songs that emphasize the aspects of God's character that we have been overlooking in our worship and theology. Christ is the Covenant-Lord who comes to deliver His people.' - Caedmon's Call
