Rebecca St. James Releases New Single "Battle Is The Lord’s”

Rebecca St. James releases her first single in 9 years. The lead single from the Rebecca St. James EP, “Battle Is the Lord’s” carries a particularly personal message. Co-written by St. James with North Point Worship’s Seth Condrey and Heath Balltzglier, “Battle Is The Lord’s” was produced by Seth Mosley and  Tedd T. It’s an offering of worship to the God who protects, the song delivers a timely reminder of Who is ultimately in control.

“The message is so relevant to what the world is dealing with right now, ‘Battle Is The Lord’s.’ The heartbeat is that the Church can sing this song, and people can be pointed to the fact that God is in control. I think in this time, it’s so easy for all of us to fear, but He’s calling us to a place of deeper trust.” —Rebecca St. James.

She also says "So surreal for me. I'm really excited to share this song with you as this message of God fighting our battles has been personally encouraging to me in my life journey and with this project!"

Verse 1: (Rebecca St. James, Brandon Lake, Rebecca St. James & Brandon Lake)
Why so heavy, oh my soul?
Did you forget who’s in control?
If He calls the wind and waves to still
He holds you now and always will

Chorus: (Rebecca St. James & Brandon Lake)
The battle is the Lord’s, take courage in the fight
The weapons of this war, are praises lifted high
My confidence is sure, my God has gone before
I’ll sing into the night, the battle is the Lord’s

Verse 2: (Rebecca St. James, Brandon Lake)
Come be still, oh anxious heart
Find rest here in the Father’s arms
In His presence, there is perfect peace
In His power, there is victory, yeah

Chorus: (Rebecca St. James & Brandon Lake)
The battle is the Lord’s, take courage in the fight
The weapons of this war, are praises lifted high
My confidence is sure, my God has gone before
I’ll sing into the night, the battle is the Lord’s

Bridge: (Rebecca St. James, Brandon Lake, Rebecca St. James & Brandon Lake)
Here now, Your presence here now
We are set free now
Hands lifted high in worship
Here now, fear has to leave now
Your kingdom’s here now
Yours is the power and glory
(Here now)
Here now, Your presence here now
We are set free now
Hands lifted high in worship
(Here now)
Here now, fear has to leave now
Your kingdom’s here now
Yours is the power and the glory
Yours is the power and glory

Chorus: (Rebecca St. James & Brandon Lake)
The battle is the Lord’s, take courage in the fight
The weapons of this war, are praises lifted high
My confidence is sure, my God has gone before
I’ll sing into the night, the battle is the Lord’s

Outro: (Rebecca St. James, Brandon Lake, Rebecca St. James & Brandon Lake)
Here now, Your presence here now (The battle is the Lord’s)
We are set free now
Hands lifted high in worship (The battle is the Lord’s)
Here now, fear has to leave now (The battle is the Lord’s)
Your kingdom’s here now
Yours is the power and glory (The battle is the Lord’s)
