The Lord is With Us
Background
This is the third song that I have written using words from The Open Gate by David Adam (following Morning Song, My Heart is Ready, and We Come). In this song, the first verse (also repeated as verse 3) is by David Adam, and I wrote verse 2 following the same Celtic poetry pattern as verse 1.
This is a joyful, upbeat song full of encouragement and it reminds us how God continually demonstrates His love and care for us. Rejoice, for God is both with us and for us!
Then, who can be against us?
It was my pleasure to collaborate with longtime musical and personal friend, David Hamilton, who plays organ on this piece. David is always creative and complimentary in his musical offerings, and I look forward to working with him in the future.
