(Verse 1)
The fire's on my heels, but it's no new design
The struggle in my soul, it’s a universal line
They say that God is faithful, He won't let it break me down
There’s a path to every exit, gotta find that higher ground
I'm humbled in the dust, before the power unseen
I push back the darkness, and I watch the shadows lean
(Pre-Chorus)
Prowling like a lion, the enemy is near
Gotta stand firm, gotta conquer the fear
The armor of the light, gotta wear it on my skin
Washing off the dark deeds, let the new life begin
(Chorus)
'Cause I can do everything through Christ, my strength and my shield
This fight is not my own, I will not yield
I’ll run from the old lusts, pursue the righteous road
I'm crushing the strongholds, breaking the load
In the Spirit's control, I find my life and peace
A roar of faith that will never cease!
(Verse 2)
When troubles come like waves, it's a test of the steel
An opportunity for joy, how my wounded heart can heal
For every trial that hits, my endurance gets a chance
To grow and be complete, in this spiritual dance
Crucified with Christ, the old self is laid to rest
It’s His life that breathes in me, I put my faith to the test
Praying in the Spirit, at all times, standing guard
Because the willing spirit can still find the body hard
(Pre-Chorus)
Prowling like a lion, the enemy is near
Gotta stand firm, gotta conquer the fear
The armor of the light, gotta wear it on my skin
Washing off the dark deeds, let the new life begin
(Chorus)
'Cause I can do everything through Christ, my strength and my shield
This fight is not my own, I will not yield
I’ll run from the old lusts, pursue the righteous road
I'm crushing the strongholds, breaking the load
In the Spirit's control, I find my life and peace
A roar of faith that will never cease!
(Bridge)
The Word is sharp and alive, cutting deep within the core
Exposing every thought, what I'm fighting for
No obligation to the dictates of the flesh
By the Spirit's power, I’m being born afresh
We use the mighty weapons, not the ones the world designed
To tear down the false structures of the human mind
(Guitar Solo - Energetic and driving)
(Chorus)
'Cause I can do everything through Christ, my strength and my shield
This fight is not my own, I will not yield
I’ll run from the old lusts, pursue the righteous road
I'm crushing the strongholds, breaking the load
In the Spirit's control, I find my life and peace
A roar of faith that will never cease!
(Outro)
Stay alert... Keep watch and pray...
The night is gone...
Clothe yourself... with Christ.
(Fade out)
