Heard you on our local Christian radio. Thank you so much for this song. I was a long term atheist and recently my eyes and heart have been pointing to god. I am still very confused with it all, and very very scared. This song and video has been giving me the courage to let him in my heart, and to give him trust. I been now noticing at 27 , that he actually been with me this whole time. He has been there with me watching me. When I almost drowned in the ocean at 5. He was there. When I almost got hit with a car as a 5th grader crossing the sidewalk to reach my school bus. He was there. In the form of my mother. It was the first time she ever walked me to the school bus, she had to also catch her bus a mile away. But that day, that darn day was the day she decided to walk with me, my mother gave me a hug goodbye and said I love you. I truly believe those precious seconds with my mother was what saved my life. If I was just a few more steps ahead, I would’ve been crushed between two cars. The day I tried killing myself as a high schooler in 2010. I tried To OD on my mother medication. I woke up crying, relieved that I didn’t die. I wanted to live . I believe he was there, he needed me to go down that route, because after that, i told myself I need to get myself out of this crazy mentality. I picked up my first camera , in search for a positive outlet. Now At 27 self employed , ceo of my own photo and video business. I have many many more experiences, god been knocking on my door hard!!!!!! He really has a funny sense of humor. I been putting all my trust in him. Thank you again for songs like this. I stopped hearing pop station, it’s just not holy. I have big dreams, and big goals. He will be there with me along the way.
WOW!!! These lyrics are SO powerful and SO beautiful!! I love hearing songs that are taken straight from Scripture. And I absolutely love the chord progressions, especially how they move at the very end of the song - so creative!! Thank you for blessing us with your music, Lucy!!
I absolutely love this. Its beautiful. Something of your music reminds me of when I was a new believer and the musical styles I was into then. Very beautiful and soul moving music.
I discovered this through Spotify, when I told my Google home 'ok Google, play Christian music' and this was the first song to come up. From the first 2 lines, I was instantly drawn to this and now I'm here! I might sing this song for my church offertory. 💞💞
Amazing songs! All glory to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ! Repent from your sins and ask God for forgiveniss, and He will set you free! For you will be saved!
This was the Song that has drawn me to your music (Around Nov 2020). Which I thank the Lord for because it has really been a blessing to me personally. GOD BLESS YOU! 😇
This is magnificent. Absolutely brilliant. I’ve listened to it fifteen times and I’m completely transported every time. I mean how wonderful to be blessed by such a sensitive and skilful leader and team. This might seem like a simple song but there’s so many beautiful moments which are a product of incredible skill and sensitivity. Every little detail sweated over. I love (and in song order): - the beautiful low singing at the beginning. She sings the word “chest” down in her chest! - the tension of the melody note against the chord on last word of line 1. - the scansion and melody on “confusion”. We’re three lines in and I’ve already been taken to another place. - the increased motion for verse 2. - my favourite moment of all - the gorgeous chord on “more” of “fight no more” and “war” of “win this war”. I think the writer might like that moment too! Songwriters hope for moments like that. - the arrangement dropping out to piano only on “darkness cannot stand the light of heaven” where we see the gorgeous hands. The whole arrangement is of a sensitivity I haven’t heard on worship music (except for With Me (David’s Song) which was done by the same person!). And the arrangement is so disciplined, not overdone. Love its acoustic and not synthetic focus. I love how God has prepared the right person to work with the right person. The way God connects us with those who teach us just what we need to hear and also with those who must also exist for us to best use our gifts. It’s definitely one way in which God’s hand is bleedingly obvious. - the rhythmic interplay between piano and voice on “brighter than the stars that pierce the night” and the lines following. That’s completely brilliant. That is a sign of masterful skill (surely not good luck?!) - the major chord IV change on “keeper”. As if there wasn’t already too many amazing moments. - the vocal slide up on the last word “hide”. - the vocal effects throughout the arrangement and beautiful felt/soft piano. And I haven’t mentioned the beautiful slow mo video which is an extraordinary visual fulfilment of the message of the song. I’m smiling thinking of how this might be just the beginning. Someone is writing songs that sound like they’ve come straight from heaven. A deposit guaranteeing our inheritance to come. Thank you Lucy and team and thank you Father. I feel so blessed to have the chance to listen and watch this.
I "discovered" Lucy Grimble's music earlier this year - loved the song 'heaven' but this is on another level - should be Psalm 151!!! ;-). The lyrics, music - and vocal expression too - completely work together and the lyrics completely resonate with me at this time. I've got a lot of time for bright uplifting worship but we need to keep it real and have moments in worship to express the darker moments of our lives too and for me this song does it like no other. Love the balance between classical music and electronic beats to keep it contemporary as well. Well done Lucy and a massive thank you for writing this.
Woooow, my Keeper will always be by my side! Giants can be on my right side, left side, in front of me or just behind me but who can be against me if my powerful KEEPER IS WITHIN ME? 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️
Actually love this so much - the Lyrics are just so deep!! I thank God for your gift and what you share, always so encouraging! Please never stop using your gift 💓
Lucy, I am so so so SO GLAD that I discovered you in 2018. I've listened to your songs more than any other song. It was very special. Keep doing a good work, please!
This is my favourite song of yours so far. I love the lyrics, chord structures with the subtle changes on the repeats - especially on the last chorus; the vocals and the ways they're doubled up in places with the harmony. I also really love the contemporary feel, the synth sounds and the soft drum loops. Great video too! It was also great to see you on TBN UK over Christmas! I love your music and your heart for worshipping our glorious Saviour, Jesus Christ. Keep on pressing on Lucy!
So Beautiful. Psalms 121. Thank you Lucy for your personal style and creativity to produce such simple but deep sounds and words. May The Lord Jesus, protect you, comfort you, heal you, guide you and provide you an abundance of financial consistency and stability, for you to grow in the Lords will, so that we your brothers and sisters can be encouraged with you worship, in order for us all to continue the good fight. Do not stray from God's Truth and plans for you, stay grounded. James 4.7.🙏❤️
oh wow IM SO EXCITED- I just discovered you (*edit last week) when I was looking for christmas lofi then christian lofi and I saw your song with jonathan ogden and I have been listening to you and eikon and rivers and robots and montell fish for the past week and a half- I'm a superfan now- It has been a big wish for me to find Christian music I love lyrically and sonically - this is awesome- but anyways I thank you for letting God use you and your friends praise and worship to touch people internationally

Darkness cannot stand the light of Heaven. Oh my Lord. I felt that. Jesus is forever the King.
I absolutely love this. Its beautiful. Something of your music reminds me of when I was a new believer and the musical styles I was into then. Very beautiful and soul moving music.
Ethereal, reassuring, mystical - in the tradition of the Psalms.

Lyrics:
When trouble comes
and I don't know where to run
And the fear inside my chest
beats like a drum
In the grip of doubt,
in the depths of confusion
I cry out to where my help comes from
'Cause even in shadow, I'm not alone
The Lord is my keeper, my keeper
He is always watching over my life
The Lord is my keeper, my keeper
He is always watching over my life
And there'll be days
when I just can't fight no more
And I will feel defeat pound at my door
Though battle-scarred,
I know I'll win this war
'Cause on my knees, I hear the Lion roar
'Cause even in shadow, I'm not alone
(CHORUS)
Darkness cannot stand
the light of heaven
Brighter than the stars
that pierce the night
Leading me from fear
back to the promise
That God is always walking by my side
[2X]
'Cause the Lord is my keeper, my keeper
He is always watching over my life
The Lord is my keeper, my keeper
He is always watching over my life
He is always watching over
I'm never alone
His is the safest shadow
Under His wings, I hide
