Watch Over Me
Shust Aaron Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was lonely
You came waltzing over to me
And Your eyes they saw right through me
And You heard each one of my cries for help
And You came to rescue me
I was broken
Every prayer that I had spoken
Reached Your ears and all my tears weren't cried in vain
You carried all my pain
And put me back together again
You watch over me in the darkest valleys
You watch over me when the night seems long
You help me to see the way before me
You watch over me; You watch over me
Always faithful
To be leading, at this moment
Interceding for Your children
Though I've wandered astray from Your infinite ways
You've never left me alone -[to chorus]
Take my frozen heart; awaken me
Never once have You forsaken me
Even though I walk through this shadow of death
You will guide and defend me
You'll guard and protect me




Even though I walk through this shadow of death
You will lead me home

Thank you for blessing me with this song Aaron! Iโ€™m 72 years old and had polio when I was 8 months old. The doctors in India told my Mama that I would be a vegetable and they could put me to sleep. But my Mama was a very strong Christian woman and told them that Her God was able to heal me and that one day I would walk and that she would take me back to these doctors and show them what God has done for her child. At 3 years old, I took my first steps! Hallelujah! I still walk with a limp, but I walk! Iโ€™m 72 years old now. Iโ€™ve had 5 heart attacks and 8 stents, have stage 3 kidney disease, emphysema, severe scarring of the lungs. Iโ€™m have a blockage in my aorta. Many tests are being done. BUT GOD! Praise the Lord! Stay Blessed and Be a Blessing! Love ya! โ™ฅ๏ธ
