music monday// fighting for me

hi ya'll! 

i know, it's been a terribly long time since i poked my "face" here. a lot has happened. from finally completing my master's, while healing from a motor accident to publishing new books...life has been quite a roller coaster, not to mention this 'rona pandemic. anyway, i would love to encourage you with a song that's one of my new favs. 

fighting for me by riley clemmons

I need the kinda love that

Can outlast the night

I need the kinda love that

Is willing to fight

When the going gets tough

And my strength's not enough

I see You showing up like never before

This battle for my heart

You took on from the start

You are the peace when my mind's at war

And o-ohh

You will never stop fighting for me

When I can't fight for myself

Every word is a promise You keep

Cause You love me like nobody else

You stand up for me

In the darkest night

When my faith is weak

You're still by my side

You will never stop fighting for me

You will never stop fighting for me

In the perfect timing

You make all things right

You paint a silver lining

In this heart of mine

When the going gets tough

And my strength's not enough

I see You showing up like never before

This battle for my heart

You took on from the start

You are the peace when my mind's at war

And o-ohh

You will never stop fighting for me

When I can't fight for myself

Every word is a promise You keep

Cause You love me like nobody else

You stand up for me

In the darkest night

When my faith is weak

You're still by my side

You will never stop fighting for me

You will never stop fighting for me

Your love

Is winning me over

Your heart

Is pulling me closer

Your love

Is winning me over

Your heart

Is pulling me closer

You will never stop...

Fighting for me, fighting for me

Every word is a promise You keep, oh, o-ohh

You will never stop fighting for me

When I can't fight for myself (when I can't)

Every word is a promise You keep (oh, oh)

Cause You love me like nobody else (nobody)

You stand up for me (You stand up for me)

In the darkest night (In the darkest night)

When my faith is weak (yeah, yeah)

You're still by my side (my side)

You will never stop fighting for me (You will never stop)

You will never stop fighting for me

i hope you remember that Jesus, our Redeemer, is fighting for us.

pray, talk to Him, trust Him in the waiting.

it's like in the Lord of the Rings trilogy...evil is eventually destroyed and good wins.

take heart, we win in the end. :)
