Does anyone remember this song. I sang it at church every Sunday as a child and I taught it to my children but I can't find music and all the lyrics anywhere.

He's My Rock, My Sword
G
He's my rock, my sword, my shield
C G
He's the hub in the middle of the wheel
He's the lily of the valley
A D
He's the bright and morning star
G
Makes no difference what you say
C G
I'm going on my knees and pray
D G
I'm gonna wait right here for Jesus til he comes
G
Cause Jesus is mine, I am forgiven
C D
I'm holding His hand, I'm going to heaven
G
Cause I found a wonderful Savior
C G
Who blesses me forever
D G
I'm His and thank God He is mine.

Here's more about the song. This is from Randy Travis lyrics. He sings this on You Tube.

"He's My Rock, My Sword, My Shield"

He's my rock, my sword, my shield
He's my wheel in the middle of the wheel
He's the lily of the valley
He's the bright and morning star
Makes no difference what you say
I'm goin' on my knees and pray
I'm gonna wait right here for Jesus
Till he comes.

'Cause Jesus is mine
I am forgiven
I'm holdin' his hand
I'm goin' to heaven
'Cause I found a wonderful savior
Who blesses me forever
I'm his and thank God
He is mine.

He's my rock, my sword, my shield
He's my wheel in the middle of the wheel
He's the lily of the valley
He's the bright and morning star
Makes no difference what you say
I'm goin' on my knees and pray
I'm gonna wait right here for Jesus
Till he comes.

--- Instrumental ---

He's my rock, my sword, my shield
He's my wheel in the middle of the wheel
He's the lily of the valley
He's the bright and morning star
Makes no difference what you say
I'm goin' on my knees and pray
I'm gonna wait right here for Jesus
Till he comes.

I'm gonna wait right here for Jesus
Till he comes...

Here's what I remember:

He's my rock, my sword, my shield
He's the hub in the middle of the wheel
He's the Lily of the Valley
He's the Bright & Morning Star
I don't care what the people may say
I'm gonna get on my knees and pray
I'm gonna see my Lord in Glory one fine day!

Oh my precious brother (sister)
when the world's on fire
You'll see my Jesus
My one desire!
Oh, Rock of Ages cleft for me
I'm gonna hide myself in Thee
Rock of Ages cleft for me!

Ethel Waters sang it in a gospel melody on her “His Eye Is On The Sparrow” record album. Here is a link to the song.

My grandma and her sisters used to sing it in church. I've seen many variations of this song, I heard it sang a little differently.

He's my rock, my sword and my shield
He's the wheel in the middle of the will.
He's he Lily, yes the lily of the valley
He's the bright and the morning star
Well it makes no difference what they say
I'm going on my knees and prayin'
I'm gonna wait, wait right her
Until he comes.

Well I spoke with my Jesus, he showed me he way
I spoke with my Jesus and he told me what to say
I opened my mouth
And let the glory roll
I can feel him working in the bottom of my soul

Sure enough,
He's my rock, he's my sword and my shield
He's the wheel in the middle of the will
Yes he's he Lily, the lily of the valley
He's the bright and the morning star
Well it makes no difference what they say
I'm going on my knees and prayin'
I'm gonna wait, wait right here, until he comes.
