Deliver Me
The Lord is my Rock, and my Fortress
My Deliverer
In Him will I, put my trust
I will call upon the Lord
Who is worthy to be praised
I will call upon the Lord
Who is worthy to be praised
So shall I be saved
CHORUS
Redeemer, Redeemer come quickly
Tarry no more
Deliver me, o--oh Lord Jesus
Biblical passages that inspired the song: 2 Sam 22:1-4 -- King David sang these words after the Lord delivered Him from Saul.
My sweet sister in the Lord, Ginger, suggested that my husband Brian and I write a song using this passage of scripture. Deliver Me became a deep prayer for both of us. We included this song on our CD that we dedicated to the parents, family, and friends of Lexi Bender, our 4-year friend who went to be with the Lord. We are always reminded of them in our prayers. Come, Lord Jesus, come; that we, and all our loved ones who love You, will be reunited.
