Warfare

[Verse 1] They never warn you about this part of the road You cry out for God, lay your whole life down But peace stays far, and battles overload Doors slam shut, waves crash where hope was found You run to the altar hungry for His touch Only to find the storm is raging twice as much [Pre-Chorus] The quiet saints who’ve walked this road before Whisper through the wind: “This is what the fight is for” [Chorus] This is warfare — a holy battle When you tell the darkness “I’m no longer yours” Heaven moves and hell pushes back hard But every pushback proves you’re walking through the door Don’t turn and run when thunder calls your name Fall on your knees, call upon His flame The enemy won’t fight what he already claims He fights the light that’s rising in Jesus’ name [Verse 2] Old shadows scream when Jesus’ peace breaks through Chains you never knew fight harder than you knew Remember Christ left glory for the wilderness test Right after heaven whispered, “You are blessed” Don’t call this pressure proof that God’s turned away It’s the Refiner’s hand making you holy today [Chorus] This is warfare — a holy battle When you tell the darkness “I’m no longer yours” Heaven moves and hell pushes back hard But every pushback proves you’re walking through the door Don’t turn and run when thunder calls your name Fall on your knees, call upon His flame The enemy won’t fight what he already claims He fights the light that’s rising in Jesus’ name [Bridge] Darkness rages only when the light breaks through God is forging strength in what looks like ruin Deeper prayer, richer Word, eyes that truly see These gifts are born where comfort used to be Every chain will break Every altar fall Every tear will tell the story of His call [Final Chorus – Triumphant] This is warfare — a holy battle But the victory is already won I will not retreat, I will not run I’ll stay on my knees till morning light has come Prayer is my weapon, my shield, my sword Bringing heaven down right here on this earth Rise up, child of God — the battle belongs to the Lord! The battle belongs to the Lord! [Outro – Gentle] Don’t give up… don’t look back… This is construction, not destruction Stay on fire… Victory is written in the blood Amen.
