Intro: To the soldiers who have fought for the truth, To those that have died for what they believe in, For us who in the frontlines remain… This is War – To live is Christ; to die is gain. Vs1: I’m standing at the threshold of another day, My shield shimmers with the morning light. As I lift my hands to You I pray, For the strength to stand for one more fight Pre-chorus: Girls: Now secure you helmet, Guys: Sign of your salvation. Girls: Lift your shield in battle, Guys: Faith is your protection. Girls: Draw the sword; His Spirit, Guys: It’s your only weapon. Together: Let righteousness guard your heart… Chorus: It’s not a fairytale, it’s not a story And though I give my life, it’s for God’s glory As I struggle, not against flesh and blood A fight over you and me, the Great Controversy Vs2: As I turn the pages of Earth’s history I see what those before me have endured And why this war began is still I mystery But we are called to stand; to persevere Bridge&Chorus Having shod your feet with the preparation that comes with the Gospel of peace… Be watchful unto this end. Chorus This War is WON Music & Lyrics Rudi van Schalkwyk, Andriëtte Steenkamp, Barbara Brödbeck |
