In company all dressed in white
But meanwhile here at the world's dark end
The dragon draws the iron curtain round against the light
And souls grow weary in his war of love
and seek their solace strolling down the sweet civilian ways
But meanwhile back at the world's dark end
The nations see no future waiting for the serpent to strike
CHORUS: 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
So we will sing songs of victory
We will rise 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're going to hear the sweetest sound you ever heard
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
CHORUS:
My eyes may see the coming King in all his majesty In company all dressed in white But meanwhile here at the world's dark end The dragon draws the iron curtain round against the light And souls grow weary in his war of love and seek their solace strolling down the sweet civilian ways But meanwhile back at the world's dark end The nations see no future waiting for the serpent to strike CHORUS: 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 So we will sing songs of victory We will rise 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're going to hear the sweetest sound you ever heard 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 CHORUS: Explain Request ×
