    LYRICS:
    Verse 1
    You go before I know
    That You've even gone to win my war
    You come back with the
    Head of my enemy
    You come back and
    You call it my victory
    Verse 2
    You go before I know
    That You've even 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 this way
    Hallelujah great Defender
    So much better Your way
    Verse 3
    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 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
    Chorus
    Hallelujah You have saved me
    So much better this way
    Hallelujah great Defender
    So much better Your way
    Pre Chorus
    All I did was praise
    All I need to do is worship
    Lord I will just bow down
    I'm just gonna stay still

    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.

    [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

    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

    All I did was praise
    All I did was worship
    All I did was bow down

    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

    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

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.
