Collab with Keith Rowe. Keith revised the lyric, composed the music and performed the vocals and musical tracks.
This song came during a difficult time when blessings seemed to be overshadowed by so many challenges. I read the story of Jacob wrestling with the angel and coming out with his blessing. Keith took the lyric and rewrote it to match the song he heard. Thanks Keith. And thanks CSO.org
Fight For Your Blessing
(c)2005 VBordlee and Keith Rowe
Knowing you would never approve
I sought to make my own rules
Thinking yours were not fair
I joined the ranks of fools
I didn't think you'd really care
Chorus
I need to learn to fight for your blessing
And not expect you to bless my fights
I need to learn to hunt down your mercy
And realize your ways are right
Gonna fight for your blessing
I know you promised to bless me
But I still run away
And build up my own gods
In front of them I pray
I push you further away
Bridge
Did the angel wrestle with me
Or did He fight my sin
Too busy fighting back
To ever let him win
It's time to let him win
(c)Royal Daughter and Keith Rowe 2005
