Verse 1
I feel a shift in the atmosphere
The battle’s rising, the kingdom draws near
I hear the footsteps of soldiers’ feet
Marching forward in steady beat
I hear the clash of the swords and shields
The sound of heaven shakes the fields
The army of God is drawing near
Clothed in His power, I will not fear
Pre-Chorus
Strength in the Lord, the power of His might
I’m armed and ready to stand and fight
Chorus
Helmet of salvation, guard my mind
Breastplate of righteousness, my heart aligned
Belt of truth wrapped around my waist
Shield of faith lifted high in grace
With the gospel shoes, I’ll run to the fight
Sword of the Spirit, my guiding light
Here I am, Lord, send me
Here I am, Lord, send me
Verse 2
The darkness trembles when light breaks through
The Word of God is strong and true
Your Spirit leads and I will obey
I’ll march beside You all of my days
Lift up the banner, His name proclaimed
Victory won in Jesus’ name
The call is clear, the battle’s near
I’ll take my place without any fear
Pre-Chorus
Strength in the Lord, the power of His might
I’m armed and ready to stand and fight
Chorus
Helmet of salvation, guard my mind
Breastplate of righteousness, my heart aligned
Belt of truth wrapped around my waist
Shield of faith lifted high in grace
With the gospel shoes, I’ll run to the fight
Sword of the Spirit, my guiding light
Here I am, Lord, send me
Here I am, Lord, send me
Bridge
Stand firm, stand strong, the battle is won
We march together as one with the Son
Forward we go, His banner we raise
Soldiers of Christ giving all of our praise
Final Chorus
Helmet of salvation, guard my mind
Breastplate of righteousness, my heart aligned
Belt of truth wrapped around my waist
Shield of faith lifted high in grace
With the gospel shoes, I’ll run to the fight
Sword of the Spirit, my guiding light
Here I am, Lord, send me
Here I am, Lord, send me
