Inspiration Behind The Battle is the Lord’s, I Will Not Fear
This song is inspired by 2 Chronicles 20:15, where God declares to King Jehoshaphat and the people of Judah:
“Do not be afraid nor dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God’s.”
It is a song of trust and surrender, reminding us that when we face overwhelming struggles, we are not alone. Just as Jehoshaphat led his people in worship instead of warfare, we are called to stand firm in faith, knowing that God fights for us.
The lyrics reflect the realities of fear, trials, and spiritual battles, but instead of giving in to despair, the song is a declaration of confidence in God’s power and victory. Through faith, worship, and trust, we find peace in the storm and strength in His promises.
This song encourages every listener to let go of fear, lift their eyes to the Lord, and trust that He is in control—because the battle is His, and He never fails.
Lyrics
I stand before the stormy sea,
Waves of fear surrounding me.
The mountains rise, the night is long,
But in the dark, I hear a song.
A voice that whispers, “Be still and know,
This fight is Mine, just let it go.”
I lift my hands, I raise my eyes,
And find my strength beyond the skies.
The battle is the Lord’s, I will not fear,
His victory is already near.
I will stand, I will sing, I will bow before the King,
For the battle is the Lord’s, and He fights for me.
The weight I’ve carried, all my fears,
The sleepless nights, the silent tears.
But I won’t run, I won’t retreat,
I’ll march in faith on steady feet.
Oh, the armies rise, but they fall away,
As I lift my voice in praise today.
The walls come down, the chains unwind,
For God is fighting, and He’s on time.
The battle is the Lord’s, I will not fear,
His victory is already near.
I will stand, I will sing, I will bow before the King,
For the battle is the Lord’s, and He fights for me.
So here I stand in perfect peace,
Not by my strength, but His release.
No fear, no doubt—my heart is free,
For the battle is the Lord’s, and He fights for me.
