My eyes may see the coming
King in all His majesty
In company all dressed in white,
But meanwhile back at the world's dark end
The dragon draws the iron curtain round against the light
And souls grow weary in this
War of love and seek their solace
Strolling down the sweet civilian ways,
But meanwhile here at the world's dark end
The nations see no future, waiting for the serpent to strike.
Where have all the Christian soldiers gone?
Where is the resistance?
Will no one be strong?
When will we stand up tall and straight,
Rise up and storm the gate
How can we fail to get excited,
The battle is ours, why don't we fight it?
Battalions of darkness rise above me, but
God put a fighter in me, put a fighter in me.
We will sing songs of victory,
We will arise and set men free,
We will applaud Your majesty,
We will proclaim Your kingdom come,
We will announce the battle done,
We will lift up the Righteous One.
Listen and you'll hear the sweetest sound
you've ever heard in England,
It's the Spirit blowing across the land,
It's the voice of One who calls His Bride
To come and to be ready
Gentle as a dove
He comes with fire.
Where have all the Christian soldiers gone?
Where is the resistance?
Will no one be strong?
When will we stand tall and straight,
Rise up and storm the gate?
How can we fail to get excited,
The battle is ours, why don't we fight it?
Battalions of darkness rise above me, but
God put a fighter in me, put a fighter in me.
So we will sing songs of victory,
We will arise and set them free,
We will applaud Your majesty,
We will proclaim Your kingdom come,
We will announce the battle done,
We will lift up the Righteous One.
