He Is Our Only Hope
Music and lyrics by Mike Wilhoit

https://youtu.be/r4ALcdXOuJ0

Winds of change blow through the air
Sometimes hope turns to despair
But we must learn to find our strength
In the One who made everything

He is our Rock, He is our Shield
He will defend us when on our knees we kneel
When storms of life around us blow
He is our only hope

We are here for a short time
To be the salt, to be the light
No matter how hopeless it seems
I know a Man who controls everything

He is our Rock, He is our Shield
He will defend us when on our knees we kneel
When storms of life around us blow
He is our only hope

And when we find ourselves inside the lion's den
He goes there before us and He will bring us out again

He is our Rock, He is our Shield
He will defend us when on our knees we kneel
When storms of life around us blow
He is our only hope

He is our Rock, He is our Shield
He will defend us when on our knees we kneel
When storms of life around us blow
He is our only hope
He is our only hope
He is our only hope

Hey Mike...man do I like your stuff...You have locked into how to use BiaB very, very well...I love how clean this track is and your vocals...hope you know how much I appreciate this message being conveyed in such a positive and pleasant manner...as a fellow Christian writer, it's great to hear tunes with an everlasting theme...our songs may not be timeless and our voices will someday fade away but our message is eternal...keep it up brother!!

Thanks Dan, I appreciate those thoughtful words more than you can know. It seems that we are on an island, sometimes, as those who see spreading the Good News in song as one of the most important things we can do. I have listened to several of your songs and I am very impressed and uplifted by those, as well. I really love "Prodigal".
If you had heard some of my late 90's and early 2000's midi songs, you would not have been as nearly impressed as the capabilities we have today. BIAB is an awesome program. I'm able to make content that is far beyond my musical abilities. For anybody else out there that reads this, get good at using Melodyne to create your detailed accompaniments. BIAB is very busy in some respects but you can 'cherry pick' the best parts and make a 'less is more' version. I'm still perfecting that.
God bless you my friend and I look forward to working together for His glory!!! Mike

Nice song, and excellent production!! Vocals are really well recorded, sung, and processed! Nicely done!! Take care. Greg
