(5) GOD WILL GIVE US SUCCESS
Uptempo. Upbeat. Fully orchestrated. One theme of the book of Nehemiah is ... working in a hostile environment. This song reflects the confidence of someone convinced they are obeying the Lord.

Story behind the song
Nehemiah 2:19-20a
"But when Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, and Geshem the Arabian, heard it, they laughed us to scorn, and despised us, and said, What is this thing that ye do? will ye rebel against the king?
20 Then answered I them, and said unto them, The God of heaven, he will prosper us; therefore we his servants will arise and build..."
Lyrics
(v.1)
God will give us success.
Don’t try to stop us, unless
You want to fight with God, if you think you’re that tough.
But the best that you have just won’t be good enough.
God will give us success.
(v.2)
God will give us the win.
Your words do nothing to Him.
We have the arms, but He has the strength.
He can carry us to any length.
God will give us the win.
(v.3)
We are back on God’s side.
We no longer run and hide.
Take your words, take them far from here,
‘Cause those are not words you’ll want God to hear
We are back on God’s side.
(v.4)
God will give us success.
He won’t be happy with less.
He knew before that we would run into you,
But you won’t stop what He’s called us to do.
God will give us success.
