Fortress by Stanley Porter
Fortress lyrics
(Verse 1)
The Lord is my shepherd and I'm satisfied. I've got what I need: Jesus Is
everything.
Sometimes I get lonely, down in despair. I take it to my God, I know He
answers my prayer.
Enemies surround me, setting traps for my soul. Gotta keep focusing on my
goal: gotta let them know
Greater is the Lord that lives inside of me than he that is in the world
I've got the victory!
(Chorus)
Jesus is my fortress: Took the curse from my life and made me blessed.
I don't have to be afraid; I'm rollin' with Christ and I got it made.
Repeat
(Verse 2)
It's always good to know the Lord is on my side, in His arms I can abide
No mountain is too high, no valley is too deep. Jehovah hears my cry and I
know
Angels got my back in every battle that I face. I don't worry 'bout
provision; God's grace is sufficient.
No weapon that is formed shall accomplish anything. That's the reason I can
sing!
(Chorus 2x)
(Rap)
Me and Christ we like homies for life, much respect due for all the pain
that He went through
Now I�ma always hold it down with the sound that will turn your life
around; break the devil down
Peep the rhyme flow comin� from the Effervescent, I�m always blessed kid,
never stressin�, study my lessons
I keep growin� like a beanstalk; speed knots I give to demons make the
devil wake up screaming.
It�s the demon slayer comin� from the house of prayer; walk your city with
more authority than your mayor.
My source of power�s spiritual manifested in lyrical form I get reborn
every time I get my praise on.
I see clearly �cause the rain is gone, read the Word in the storm and it
made me strong.
Some cats be losin� focus like a broken camera, living life without Christ:
they try�n to box with no stamina
I�ma still be standin� in the last round yo; for every blow the devil throw
I got a brand new flow we bumped
Heads before and to prove it I got scars. When this battles over, I�ll
still be shining like a star.
I�m on the rise my destination is beyond the skies, my enemies read your
destiny in Psalm 35.
Realize: I still progress because I�m blessed by his Royal Highness and you
could never penetrate my fortess
Bridge:
Holy, Holy, Holy Is the Lord
Faithful, Faithful, Faithful Is the Lord
I�ve never known Jesus to let me down, placed my feet on solid ground
Never known a love like this before, got me comin� back for more
Oh the blood of Jesus
I can sing and shout; he has brought me out!
(Chorus)
