Stand Your Ground

(Verse 1)

A final word echoes in the dark

Be strong, let His power leave its mark

The enemy is closing in, the shadows start to crawl

Gotta suit up, gotta stand up, gotta be ready for the fall

It's not flesh and blood that we're fighting tonight

It's the unseen rulers, the authorities of the night

Mighty powers in this dark and troubled world

Against the evil spirits, every banner unfurled.

(Chorus)

Put on the whole armor, every piece of God's design

Resist the evil time, a soldier on the line

Stand your ground, feel the fire in the soul

After the battle's done, you'll still be standing whole.

(Verse 2)

Strap the belt of truth tight around your waist

No time for lies, no time for waste

The body armor, bright and pure, of God’s own righteousness

This is the shield against the wicked's harsh caress

For shoes, lace up the peace from the Good News' sound

So you’re fully prepared when your feet hit the ground.

(Chorus)

Put on the whole armor, every piece of God's design

Resist the evil time, a soldier on the line

Stand your ground, feel the fire in the soul

After the battle's done, you'll still be standing whole.

(Bridge)

Hold up the shield of faith, watch the arrows cease

Stopping the devil’s flame, finding inner peace

Salvation's the helmet, secured on your head

Take the Sword of the Spirit, the words that He said.

(Outro)

The night is almost gone, the sun is breaking through

The day of salvation is waiting for you

Tear off the dark deeds, throw away the dirt

And put on the shining armor, so you can't be hurt

Pray in the Spirit, stay alert, keep the faith alive

Pray for all believers, so we all survive.

(repeated with intensity until fade)

Stand Firm!

Whole Armor!

Be Strong!

The Word!
