**Father, My Shield**
Father, you are all the defense I require,
A fortress unyielding, my tower of might.
Your love surrounds me like a fiery pyre,
Guarding my heart from darkness through the night.
Your presence soothes my fears, calms my soul,
A beacon of strength, a comforting embrace.
No harm can reach me while you hold control,
For in your arms, I find my safest place.
Like a shield, you deflect every attack,
Protecting me from the world’s cruel disdain.
Your wisdom guides me along the righteous track,
Ensuring I stray not from your holy rein.
Through trials and tribulations, you stand by,
A constant source of hope, my steady guide.
Your unwavering support, my anchor nigh,
Keeps me afloat amidst the stormy tide.
So let the storms rage and the darkness fall,
For in your embrace, I am safe and whole.
Father, you are my defense, my all in all,
My impenetrable shield, my guiding soul.
