Though I do not fight with blood and flesh
This war that wages is old and I am new
Born again out of a merciful womb
Time stands still as a light in my heart dawns
Awakening both to love and to duty
I bow in love to the King who commissions me
Not to my death but to carry His breath
My waist is girded with Truth
My chest covered in His righteousness
My feet shod in peace
Only found within His reach
I am given a shield of fiery faith
Able to defend against every lie from every wraith
My head is guarded by the sturdy steel
Of the salvation that brought me to this field
And last of all though not least by any measure
I take up the sword of His Word, my dearest treasure
Now, covered head to foot
I’m finally found and ready to begin
As long as I never leave Him I’ll win
Wrapped in destiny and favor I’ll fight
And His heart will beat in mine
Until the day I die
When I will see Him and enter in
With complete delight
Knowing I never gave up the fight
