I am 77 years old. This song is one of the most anointed and powerful songs I have experienced in my life!! This so describes our Father - Who He is and what He does when we truly abide and rest in Him. When my life’s journey here gets rough, I listen to this song. Just a week ago, my wife survived a rollover car crash with only a few bruises. I am convinced that my Defender commissioned many angels to surround my wife and protect her. Faithful and true is our Father!!
I was trying for a baby with my husband for months on months, and this song was the one that I clung to, got me through it. “Sing, sing o barren land, water is coming to the thirsty. Though you are empty, I am the well. Draw from me, I will provide.” And I told God “it’s in Your hands now, God. Whether I can’t bear children or not, I will remember that You are the well and I will draw from You regardless bc You will provide” and then my test came back positive, God is truly amazing 🥺❤
Genuine. Can see (in her eyes) that God tangibly came down and touched deep parts. And all she had to do was praise Him; bow down and stay still. Amen!
God used the words to your song to bring me back to life and set me on a journey into His love I had not known before. When I thought I lost me, He knew where I left me. He picked up the pieces and put me back together. He really did. You 'll never know how this song saved my life.
At 62 this is my song of this season...and will be my anthem🎉 thank you Rita Springer.. the season of the watchmen on the wall to worship and see the mighty of hand of God deliver.
For Many Years my kids didn't understand why I always bought Rita's CDs everytime they released. Now One is on the worship team at her church and Yup, She sings Rita's songs! All 3 of them GET IT now! So Anointed! Love Love Love This song...as Usual! Blessings! 😘❤😉
[Bridge] When I thought I lost me You knew where I left me You reintroduced me to your love You picked up all my pieces Put me back together You are the defender of my heart Undone about now!
Wow!! Just Wow!! The Holy Spirit spoke to me through this song!! I was balling like a baby!! What an incredible reminder that we have a Heavenly Father in Jesus that is always our Defender....PRAISE JESUS
For a second I couldn’t remember the name of this song so I could play it. So I googled “you come back with the head of my enemy”. Sure enough the song popped up! God has defended me so many times. And in seasons like this one, a song like this brings some great reminders for us to just wait on the Lord.
Dear Sister, Mrs. Springer, Thank You for honoring our Lord Jesus Christ in this way, such a beautiful perspective and I thank God for You. All My Love in the Truth. May His mercy, peace and love guide you in all ways. Amen.
YESHUA HAMASHIACH! Such I powerful song! I heard this on KLOVE yesterday, I thought they were saying "So much better, YAHWEH." Which really brought me in the spirit. O Jesus, How great are you! O Great Defender!
People don't understand what musicians go through , although they are overly blessed with artistic ability , oftentimes it comes at a great price such as being single.... throughout the centuries great musicians have suffered much loneliness only to be married to the music . The good news is you can be married to God that will carry us through until the Lord opens the door to the right person... "Contentment" is the word .
Thank you for this song! The lyrics have touched my heart in this season of waiting. I'm always blessed when I listen to your expression in worship! Thank you Rita... truly you have been such a gift and I have learned so much about leading worship as I have listened to you over the years. Just WOW!
Wow so grateful for this song. The lyrics are so spot on. This was my go to song in 2018. And when the enemy tried to overtake me with anxiety in 2019, I started singing this song and it left. Hallelujah! 🙌👊✨👑😇🙏
[Verse 1] You go before I know That You've gone to win my war You come back with the head of my enemy You come back and You call it my victory You go before I know That You've gone to win my war Your love becomes my greatest defense It leads me from the dry wilderness [Pre-Chorus] All I did was praise All I did was worship All I did was bow down All I did was stay still [Chorus] Hallelujah, you have saved me So much better Your way Hallelujah, great Defender So much better Your way [Verse 2] You know before I do Where my heart can seek to find your truth Your mercy is the shade I'm living in You restore my faith and hope again [Pre-Chorus] All I did was praise All I did was worship All I did was bow down All I did was stay still [Chorus] Hallelujah, you have saved me So much better this way Hallelujah, great Defender So much better this way Hallelujah, you have saved me So much better your way Hallelujah, great Defender So much better your way [Bridge] When I thought I lost me You knew where I left me You reintroduced me to your love You picked up all my pieces Put me back together You are the defender of my heart When I thought I lost me You knew where I left me You reintroduced me to your love You picked up all my pieces Put me back together You are the defender of my heart [Chorus] Hallelujah, you have saved me So much better this way Hallelujah, great Defender So much better your way Hallelujah, you have saved me So much better this way Hallelujah, great Defender So much better your way [Outro] All I did was praise All I need to do is worship Lord I will just bow down I'm just gonna stay still

[Verse 1]
You go before I know
That You've gone to win my war
You come back with the head of my enemy
You come back and You call it my victory
You go before I know
That You've gone to win my war
Your love becomes my greatest defense
It leads me from the dry wilderness
[Pre-Chorus]
All I did was praise
All I did was worship
All I did was bow down
All I did was stay still
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, you have saved me
So much better Your way
Hallelujah, great Defender
So much better Your way
[Verse 2]
You know before I do
Where my heart can seek to find your truth
Your mercy is the shade I'm living in
You restore my faith and hope again
[Pre-Chorus]
All I did was praise
All I did was worship
All I did was bow down
All I did was stay still
[Chorus]
Hallelujah, you have saved me
So much better this way
Hallelujah, great Defender
So much better this way
Hallelujah, you have saved me
So much better your way
Hallelujah, great Defender
So much better your way

You reintroduced me to your love
You picked up all my pieces
Put me back together
You are the defender of my heart
