Story Behind The Song
I wrote it for the choir in my church, slow and reverent. Thankgoodness, my producer, Sammy Sylvester, totally changed it around into a fun happening song.
Song Description
Deliverer is based on the book of Revelation & the Psalms. I will exalt Him because He has saved me and will save me (even though it seems turbulent in this world), but most importantly, because of who He is to me. He is my deliverer, yesterday, today and tomorrow. This promise empowers me and adds order to the chaos around me. It helps me move on with confidence for His love casts out all fear.

Lyrics
YOU ARE MY DELIVERER
Ó 2004 Loyda Hjelte (320-235-2734)
THE BOOK HAS BEEN WRITTEN
THEIR PAGES HAVE BEEN READ
HIS HAND AND FEET WERE PIERCED FOR MY SAKE
THE BOOKS WILL BE OPEN
THEIR PAGES WILL BE READ
AND IN THAT DAY
HE?LL STAND AND CALL MY NAME
HE STANDS IN THE MIDDLE
OF SEVEN GOLDEN LAMPS
DO NOT BE AFRAID, HE IS FIRST AND LAST
HE DIED FOR MY SAKE
NOW HE IS ALIVE AND WELL
BEHOLD HE HOLDS THE KEYS OF LIFE
I EXTOL THEE OH LORD
FOR THOU ART MY STRENGTH AND MY DELIVERER
FOREVER
I EXTOL THEE OH LORD
MY TIME IS IN YOUR HANDS
AND FROM MY ENEMIES
THOU DOES DELIVER ME
I LIFT UP MY EYES
WHERE DOES MY HELP COMES
MY HELP COMES FROM HEAVEN ABOVE
THE EARTH SHAKES AND QUAKES
IT?S FOUNDATIONS IN DISMAY
BUT HIS DIVINE EARS HEAR MY PRAYERS
I EXTOL THEE OH LORD
FOR THOU ART MY STRENGTH AND MY DELIVERER
FOREVER
I EXTOL THEE OH LORD
MY TIMES ARE IN YOUR HANDS
AND FROM MY ENEMIES
THOU DOES DELIVER ME
HIS FACE SHINNING LIKE THE SUN
HIS FEET LIKE BURNISHED BRONZE
HIS HAIR WHITE LIKE WHITE WOOL, LIKE SNOW
HIS VOICE LIKE THE SOUND OF
MANY WATERS RUNNING WILD
HIS EYES ARE LIKE FIRE IN THE NIGHT
(TO CHORUS)
///TE EXALTO SENOR
PUES ERES MI FUERZA Y MI LIBERTADOR
POR SIEMPRE///
