Wall of love

I had this image of the love of God coming down and surrounding us like a wall, protecting us from evil and the fiery darts of the wicked.
I don’t think you find this illustration in scripture, but I felt it was a legitimate idea. It could be in Scripture in some indirect way, but I don't think there is a literal scripture that speaks of God's love as a wall.
The only thing memorable about this song is that I originally wrote it for a funeral- a home going. I only had a couple of days’ notice, and I never really got the song together for that occasion. It originally was written in a very somber away, sort of reverential and encouraging but in a very downbeat way. I actually forgot about it after the funeral.
I didn't come back to the song for quite a while, and when I did I really felt prompted of the Holy Spirit to pick up the tempo and make the song more joyful and victorious.
Even though this song is in the first person speaking like it’s God, it is not a prophetic song.
Once in a while I still perform it in a very downbeat way when I’m in the mood.
