Your Love Surrounds Me

By Elton Smith and Larry Holder

CCLI Number: 4319524

I corresponding with Nahar for several years after he converted to Christianity. Please take a few minutes to read his testimony. This song is dedicated to his struggle to survive in a culture that is hostile to any other religion. Most of us live in open societies. I'm not sure we can really understand what he experiences each day. Larry and I went back to the Psalms of David for inspiration in writing this song. - Elton, April 3, 2004

Many thanks to Alan Law at Give-a-song.com for the wonderful recording! Be sure to hear his song Adonai.- March 7, 2005

I created a video for the song using SDXL and StudioOne. Rhesa enhanced the recording. We added an accompaniment track. - September 30, 2023

"Many are the woes of the wicked, but the LORD's unfailing love surrounds the man who trusts in him." Psalm 32:10 (NIV)

(Introduction)

(Verse 1)
The foe encamps around me
Their darkened world surrounds me
Far throughout the land.
Yet You're the faithful Giver
So able to deliver
By Your mighty hand.

(Chorus)
Though battles rage, all fear is gone
Though mountains fall, Your love is strong.

O Lord, my Shield and Savior
You keep me safe from harm
Please hear me when I cry
You hear me when I cry.
My Savior, stay beside me
Renew my strength and guide me,
Ever in Your care
I'm ever in Your care.

Your love surrounds me
Through dark of night,
Your love surrounds me
My guiding light,
Your love surrounds me
I will not fear,
Your love surrounds me
You're always near.

(Verse 2)
Though mortal danger finds me
And evil seeks to bind me,
Grace and peace I've found.
Amid the daily trials
My soul is safe because
Your love is all around.

(Repeat Chorus)
Though battles rage, all fear is gone
Though mountains fall, Your love is strong.

O Lord, my Shield and Savior
You keep me safe from harm
Please hear me when I cry
You hear me when I cry.
My Savior, stay beside me
Renew my strength and guide me,
Ever in Your care
I'm ever in Your care.

Your love surrounds me
Through dark of night,
Your love surrounds me
My guiding light,
Your love surrounds me
I will not fear,
Your love surrounds me
You're always near.

(Repeat Verse 1)
The foe encamps around me
Their darkened world surrounds me
Far throughout the land.
Yet You're the faithful Giver
So able to deliver
By Your mighty hand.

I heard the phrase this morning "Your Love Surrounds Me" this morning when I woke up. Our DIL died Sept.28,23 and what a loss. I feel like I'm being attacked on all sides. I just needed to know HIS Love surrounds me. Worship has,a, way of changing your perspective. Thank you for a beautiful song!!

the words of the song are exactly the words in my heart. Fear, fear, fear and no where to turn to. It is comforting to know that the Lord can be depended upon, that no matter how fearsome the enemy, our GOD is strong enough to see us through. Thank you so much for sharing your innermost thoughts - at least, now, i know i am not alone. God bless u.
