War

Get thee behind me Satan
The battle is not mine
Although I've tried to win
In my own strength a thousand times
Seemingly defeated
Or so he thought
Truth by told
It was only to make me, what I am not
Or should I say wasn't
For it's true
I am a warrior
A soldier
at battle for You
At the front lines
Of spiritual war
You can find me there
Still sometimes
having to be reminded
It will never lie in my strength
For what strength
do I have
If not for, what you have bestowed
Upon me
I am the created
You the creator
I am humbled to stand upon
Your shore
In my sin stained rags
For I know
nothing of Holy
Your light radiates
and I am merely dim
You the Sun, me a cloudy day
But I will forever but grateful
For Your grace
The chance to see Your face
I fight the good fight
Even on dreadful, weary nights
But it is in these times
My faith grew
And I was humbled by Your power
Your Might
So forever I will fight
In your army
Against principalities, powers of darkness
The weapons of this war are not carnal
But whom shall I fear?
For if you are for me
Who can be against me?
