You Are A Shield Around Me | Psalm 3 | David Johndrow | Official Music Video

“A Shield Around Me” is a worship anthem inspired by Psalm 3, written for moments when the pressure is heavy and the battle feels close. When voices say hope is gone, God declares something louder: He is our shield, our glory, and the lifter of our heads. This song is a declaration of trust in the middle of spiritual warfare—when fear surrounds, when the ground shakes, and when rest feels impossible. We lay down in peace, rise in faith, and stand firm knowing the Lord is fighting for us. 👉 “I lay down and sleep in peace; I wake up—You are watching me.” 👉 Deliverance belongs to the Lord.
