lyrics

I was beaten bruised and dead
And then you took me off the street
Put a helmet on my head
And took the shackles off my feet

Now some trust in chariots and some in the sword
But we trust in the name of the Lord
Answer when we call!

Lead us into that Promised Land
Where the soul never dies and every tear is dried
We're going home to the kingdom far beyond the sky
The battle rages on and we stand our ground
Until the Lord descends and every knee shall bow
Guide us with your hand

Sometimes I feel like I'm alone
Like the darkness chokes my soul
And in the past I did not speak
I let it waste away my bones

But now I trust in Jesus and I trust in his word
And I trust in the name of the Lord
Answer when we call!

Lead us into that Promised Land
Where the soul never dies and every tear is dried
We're going home to the kingdom far beyond the sky
The battle rages on and we stand our ground
Until the Lord descends and every knee shall bow
Guide us with your hand

So brothers sisters take your stand
As we forcefully advance
The battle's only just begun
But we know he's comin' back

And we'll fight for the lost souls of this dark and fallen world
And we'll fight in the name of the Lord
Answer when we call!

Lead us into that Promised Land
Where the soul never dies and every tear is dried
We're going home to the kingdom far beyond the sky
The battle rages on and we stand our ground
Until the Lord descends and every knee shall bow
Guide us with your hand
And Lead us into that Promised Land
Where the soul never dies and every tear is dried
We're going home to the kingdom far beyond the sky
The battle rages on and we stand our ground
Until the Lord descends and every knee shall bow
Guide us with your hand
