Knight in Shining Armor

by Christie Cook

Misunderstandings can cause such great emotional turmoil especially when it involves a close friend. People will always let us down because we're not perfect. It was during one of those times that I wanted to withdraw and cling to Jesus, my Knight, and rest in His Hiding Place.

Lyrics

It's not like me to move this slow
Not to hold my head up high
Something I thought was so secure
Has been cast aside

Chorus
O I seek a Knight in Shining Armor
To rescue me from this battle I'm in
Oh a Knight whose Word is His Honor
Whose promises are kept faithful to the end
Whose love is like a rock and not shifting sand
Whose words don't break down, they build and they mend

Selfless love must venture out
But caustic words hands me doubt
My heart is guarded I feel much more safe
In that Hiding Place… where I seek

Bridge
Love is patient, It bears all things
Man of Sorrows, Acquainted with Grief
Did you mention how it can sting
How painful, love can be

Tag
Oh I seek the Knight in Shining Armor
To rescue me from this battle I'm in
Oh a Knight, a Knight in Shining Armor
To help me forgive and trust again
