Sword and Shield

Foolish are my thoughts
For they Lead me astray.
I wish not be bound by this moral law.
I want to be free, too laugh and to play

I sat in awe of your glory and love
Then I left to fight on the battlefield
To serve and to conquer in your holy name
But it seems I forgot my Sword and My Shield

Torn to shreds by the enemy's claws
I tried to fight them off on my own
But their Fury overpowered my defense
And now I've disgraced your glorious throne.

Repent! Repent! Lord, I Repent!
For I can't carry on without your consent!
I'll open my heart and I'll let you in
So I can feel your love once again.

I wave goodbye to the things I once knew
As I once again approach the battlefield
What I say and do must glorify you
For you shall be my sword and my shield

Wise are my thoughts
For they lead me towards you
I discipline my mind so as to not waver
You are my Lord, my Councillor, my Father

Now as I face the enemy
He tries to tear my down
But through your glory and honor
I will carry your crown

Victorious! Victorious! Lord, I am Victorious!
Though I could not do it without you
For you are glorious
Your words and commandments forever reign true

I have survived the Battlefield

For you, my God, are my Sword and Shield.
