There's A War Going On

(album: Love Alive III - 1984)

There's a war going on
And if you're gonna win
So you better make sure that you have Jesus deep down within
This battle cannot be won with bullets and guns
For the enemy you cannot see with human faculties

For we wrestle (not against flesh and blood)
But against (principalities)
Against the rulers of darkness (against the rulers of darkness)
Against spiritual wickedness (against spiritual wickedness)
In high places
It's a fact (it's a fact)
That Satan's on your track (Satan's on your track)
And suddenly, without any warning, he'll launch his attack

So you better make sure that you know
That wherever you may go
That you have the sword, which is the word of God
Deep down in your soul

Oh, this is what you have to know
You can't fight this battle on your own
You need the power of God rooted and grounded in your life
This is what the bible says...

We need the armor
We need the armor of the Lord

So we can walk right (walk right)
Talk right (talk right)
Live right (live right)
Pray right (pray right)
