The Fighter

When I had, when I had
Weapons in my hands
Then You had a spear in Your side, side
When I had, when I had
Murder on my tongue
Then You had mercy in Your eyes

I gave You hate
You gave me grace, oh
I declared war
You spoke in love

'Cause You were the Fighter who took on the liar
A son and a father, shame made them strangers
Now Your sons and daughters come running home to You
'Cause love has defeated things that stood between us
And though we still see troubles we are fearless
'Cause we know in this world we are not on our own
Nooo no no

When I had, when I had
A kiss that would betray
Then You had hands that washed my feet
Yeah-eah-eah-eah
When I had, when I had
Rebellion in my skin
Then You have scars that brought me peace

I gave You hate
You gave me grace, oh
I declared war
And You spoke with love
Ay, ay

'Cause You were the fighter who took on the liar
A son and a father, shame made them strangers
Now Your sons and daughters come running home to You
'Cause love has defeated the things that stood between us
And though we still see troubles we are fearless
And we know in this world we are not on our own

'Cause Your hands made peace when
All I ever brought was warfare
Your blood broke walls I couldn't climb
Your wounds, they shut down
Hostility between us and battle sounds
Your blood bought peace I couldn't buy

'Cause You were the fighter who took on the liar
A son and a father, shame made them strangers
Now Your sons and daughters come running home to You
Ay nah nah
Love has defeated the things that stood between us
And though we still see troubles we are fearless
'Cause we know in this world we are not on our own
We are not on our own
We are not on our own
We'll never be alone
We are not our own
