When the enemy is closing in behind me
 And the sea blocks my way ahead
 I lift up my praise
 And the Lord parts the waves
 Seas part by the power of His hand
  
 When the walls of doubt rise up before me
 And I fear what may lie ahead
 I lift up my praise
 The walls fall.  I’m amazed
 Walls fall by the power of His hand
  
 When God calls and I cower in fear
 Not knowing if I am the one
 I lift up my praise
 My lamp shines to daze
 Victory by the power of His hand
  
 When a giant looms tall before me
 And I have but a stone and a sling
 I lift up my praise
 As the stone finds the way
 Giants fall by the power of His hand
  
 When the heat of the battle is strong
 And I’m thrown in with only a prayer
 I lift up my praise
 And the Lord shows the way
 Fire quenched the power of His hand
  
 When the lions den becomes my home
 And their hunger is shown on their face
 I lift up my praise
 And the Lord makes them tame
 Lions calm by the power of His hand
  
 When I’m chained up in a prison cell
 And it seems there is no way out
 I lift up my praise
 And God breaks every chain
 Prison open the power of His hand
