Him bless and no curse me, nor trod against I shine, shine like the star you are! them voodoo not stop you, them badman can't harm you-- so it's a song telling us to take courage, knowing who we are in Christ. the world will fight against us, but the One in us is greater than the one who is in the world -- live taking hold of your freedom in Christ, seizing fully that love which casts out all fear, knowing that the Most High is faithful to you! shine! shine like the stars that you are!

The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.” (Exodus 14:13-14) nah 'fraid a Pharoah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
