this song is a powerful prayer asking God to walk closely with us in everyday of our lives and not to allow us do things using our own humanly wisdom but to depend solely on Him in every aspect of our lives. trust in the lord with the whole of your heart and don not lean on your own understanding. in all your ways, acknowledge Him and He will make straight your paths. proverbs 3:5-6 ESV. if it had not been the Lord who was on our side when people rose up against us, then they would have swallowed us up alive, when their anger was kindled against us; Blessed be the Lord, who has not given us as prey to their teeth! We have escaped like a bird from the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken, and we have escaped! Psalm 124:2‭-‬3‭, ‬6‭-‬7 ESVmore
