Build A Hedge

Story Behind The Song

I had an idea for a hymn type of Gospel song that could be colorful and upbeat while keeping some modern influences. This is a prayer to help in our walk with God.

Song Description

The Word of God tells us that protection is available through the shed blood of Jesus. This song is a prayer hymn praising the Lord and asking for the protection by building a hedge around us so only He can get through.

Build A Hedge
Words & music by Jon Beckwith Moore

Our Father which art in heaven
Hallowed be thy Holy Name

Build a hedge about me Jesus
Let nothing in or out but you
I ask you this in kindness
Just to help me in my walk with you

Sometimes when I feel so lonely
And the tears cannot quit spilling out
I just think of my sweet Savior
Remembering the prayer that always works

Build a hedge about me Jesus
Let nothing in or out but you
I ask you this in kindness
Just to help me in my walk with you

I think back to when you saved me
The brokeness I had to go through
You?re the potter I?m the clay Lord
I just pray now I?m a vase that pleases you

Now I see I cannot make it
Without your love and guidance every single day
And with all the evil out there
I just know now of one thing for me to pray

Build a hedge about me Jesus
Let nothing in or out but you
I ask you this in kindness
Just to help me in my walk with you

Build a hedge about me Jesus
Let nothing in or out but you
I ask you this in kindness
Just to help me in my walk with you

Build a hedge about me Jesus
