" Warrior for Christ "

“Warrior for Christ”

(Lyrics By Gerald Logan)

( Verse 1 )

The needle held the poison,

I ran it straight into my veins,

Thought I’d found heaven in a syringe,

But it only left me chained.

I lost my family, lost my home,

I was dying slow inside,

But I couldn’t leave that devil’s drug,

No matter how I tried.

( Chorus )

But now I’m washed in the blood, I’ve been set free,

Jesus broke the chains that once buried me.

From the ashes of my pain, He gave me new life,

I was a slave to the needle… now I’m a warrior for Christ.

( Verse 2 )

I stared at my reflection,

A stranger in my skin,

Hollow eyes and broken soul,

The fight I’d never win.

I fell down on my knees that night,

And whispered, “Lord, please hear…”

His arms reached down into my hell,

And pulled me out of fear.

( Chorus )

Now I’m washed in the blood, I’ve been set free,

Jesus broke the chains that once buried me.

From the ashes of my pain, He gave me new life,

I was a slave to the needle… now I’m a warrior for Christ.

( Bridge )

No more shadows, no more shame,

I carry a cross, not the devil’s chains.

My scars still tell the story true,

But they shine with the light of what He can do.

( Final Chorus )

Yes, I’m washed in the blood, I’ve been set free,

Jesus broke the chains that once strangled me.

From the ruins of my past, He gave me His light,

I was lost in the darkness… now I’m a warrior for Christ.

( Outro )

If He saved a soul like mine, He can save yours too,

There’s no pit too deep for what His love can do.

Once a slave to the needle… now I’m a warrior for Christ.
