Why should I now yield
To the enemy near?
The Lord is my shield
I'll not tremble in fear.
What can mere man do,
If the Lord is my friend?
I'll see this life through
To the ultimate end!
I'll follow this course
I'll follow God's plan
I'll know not remorse
For He is at hand!
Shielded from the enemy
Until his martyrdom
This prophet's friend, indeed,
Was God's own living Son!
[Verse 1] Why should I now yield To the enemy near? The Lord is my shield I'll not tremble in fear. What can mere man do, If the Lord is my friend? I'll see this life through To the ultimate end! [Pre-Chorus] I'll follow this course I'll follow God's plan I'll know not remorse For He is at hand! [Chorus] The Lord is my shield The Lord is my shield I'll not tremble in fear [Verse 2] Shielded from the enemy Until his martyrdom This prophet's friend, indeed, Was God's own living Son! I'll not deny Jesus And His hand in my life I testify He is with us [Bridge] He is both justice and mercy He sends forth Truth and Light [Chorus] The Lord is my shield The Lord is my shield I'll not tremble in fear
God Almighty is my shield, and what can man do if God is my friend. I shall not be sacrificed until my time comes. Then I shall be offered freely.” 2. One of the most pointed and poignant of Joseph Smith’s martyrdom prophecies was made to the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles in the spring of 1844.
