STAND YOUR GROUND

Spiritual warfare is real, however there is very little we can do, and it's pretty well all up to God. I wanted this song to convey how helpless we are, and that victory and might is only found in our General - Jesus Christ. And our job is not to battle the evil spiritual forces, but the set captives free. I hope you find this song as inspiring as I do. I still can't believe it was written by my hand.

My armours on, what do I do?

I hold my sword that I can't use

To Fight the enemy, I will lose

Unless somebody teaches me.

My shield of faith hangs on my arm

It's far too heavy and I can't start

To protect myself from all the harm 

of deadly arrows shot at me.

My helmet's too big for my head

My shoes to small so I can't tread

Into the battle, so with dread

I see the enemy come to me.

Stand your ground 

And if you fall down 

Stand again 

Trusting God's hand

Will guide you to the victory

As you learn to pray and believe.

You've already won

But if you fall down

Know God's Son

Stands his ground

He has never been defeated

and he has stared the devil down.

I swing my sword, that he knocks down 

And kicks my shield and swings around 

His fist as I fall to the ground 

And land upon my dirty knees

Then darkness lifts its killing blow

I watch with dread, I am too slow

To dodge his sword and now I know 

My Christian life will now soon cease.

But as I cringe upon the ground

About to die, I hear a sound

That's from a trumpet blowing loud

That makes the darkness turn and flee.

Stand your ground 

And if you fall down 

Stand again 

Trusting God's hand

Will guide you to the victory

As you learn to pray and believe.

You've already won

But if you fall down

Know God's Son

Stands his ground

He has never been defeated

and he has stared the devil down.

I now look up, there Jesus stands

And then He kneels and grabs my hand

To pull me on my feet again 

And lead me to a place I see

Where wounded soldiers learn to read

The Bible, and pray with belief

That God's the one who takes the lead

To win the battle's victory 

So now my armour fits on tight 

My sword is sharp, and I can fight

With prayer I call upon God's might

To set the enemy's captives free.

Stand your ground 

And if you fall down 

Stand again 

Trusting God's hand

Will guide you to the victory

As you learn to pray and believe.

You've already won

But if you fall down

Know God's Son

Stands his ground

He has never been defeated

and he has stared the devil down.

Stand your ground 

And if you fall down 

Stand again 

Trusting God's hand

Will guide you to the victory

As you learn to pray and believe.

You've already won

But if you fall down

Know God's Son

Stands his ground

He has never been defeated

and he has stared the devil down.
