Defender

[Verse 1: Steffany Gretzinger]

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, oh-ooh

[Verse 2: Francesca Battistelli]

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: Francesca Battistelli]

And all I did was praise

All I did was worship

All I did was bow down, oh

All I did was stay still

[Chorus: Francesca Battistelli]

Hallelujah, You have saved me

So much better Your way

Hallelujah, great Defender

So much better Your way

[Verse 3: Steffany Gretzinger]

You know before I do

Where my heart can seek to find Your truth

Your mercy is the shade I'm living in

And You restore my faith and hope again

[Pre-Chorus: Steffany Gretzinger]

And all I did was praise, ohhh, oh-ooh

All I did was worship

All I did was bow down, oh

All I did was stay still, stay still

[Chorus: Francesca Battistelli & Steffany Gretzinger]

Hallelujah, You have saved me

So much better Your way

Hallelujah, great Defender

So much better Your way

[Interlude]

[Bridge: Francesca Battistelli & Steffany Gretzinger]

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

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: Francesca Battistelli & Steffany Gretzinger]

Hallelujah, You have saved me

So much better this way

Hallelujah, great Defender

So much better Your way

So much better Your way (I know it's so much better)

So much better Your way (I know it, I know it)

[Outro: Francesca Battistelli & Steffany Gretzinger]

And all I did was praise

All I need to do is worship

Lord, I will just bow down

I'm just gonna stay still
