Story Behind The Song
I have a real problem with discouragement so when I write a song and practice it, God actually encourages me with my own songs. Sometimes I will be listening to my songs because I have to check and see if the CD is skipping or something like having to type this stuff in and I will be amazed at the words and how uplifting they are and I actually get encouraged listening to my own songs (pretty strange).
Song Description
In the charismatic churches this kind of song is called prophetic not because it tells the future but because it is as if God is speaking directly to His children to encourage, edify, and exhort them. They sometimes begin with "Come my child" or somethin

Lyrics
MY SHINING KNIGHT
Words and Music by JOANNA
chorus
I am Jesus the Lord your God. If you will trust me I’ll be your guard.
I will protect you from every care, so if you dare, never despair, come to me.
For I am Jesus the Lord your God, to be my child isn’t really hard.
Just reach your hand out and call my name, and your life will never be the same.
Jesus is for me a shining knight, always there to rescue me.
When the Dragon’s fire comes so ominously, I am swept away to safety.
chorus
Jesus came to me when I was down, my heart had been broken in two.
But His healing power flowed through me that hour, and left me in His arms forever.
I am Jesus the Lord your God. If you will trust me I’ll be your guard.
I will protect you from every care, so if you dare, never despair, come to me.
For I am Jesus the Lord your God. To be my child isn’t really hard.
Just reach your hand out and call my name, and your life will never be the same. And your life will never be the same.
