[Verse 1] All defence rise In the holy light No attack tonight Let the mercy stand Hands up, hearts aligned Under blessed hands We choose peace to reign We choose peace again [Pre-Chorus] Please, in aid of God Blessed is the King Peace to every home Peace to everything Love on the front line Grace in every bone Hold the line with faith Till the fear is gone [Chorus] ALL DEFENCE rise All defence rise Peace to reign Peace all around ALL DEFENCE rise All defence rise (amen, amen) We stand our ground [Verse 2] No more broken pride No more borrowed rage Let the strong be kind Let the old wounds fade I will lift my voice For the ones in need With a healing fire And a gentle creed [Pre-Chorus] Please, in aid of God Blessed is the King Peace to every home Peace to everything Love on the front line Grace in every bone Hold the line with faith Till the fear is gone [Chorus] ALL DEFENCE rise All defence rise Peace to reign Peace all around ALL DEFENCE rise All defence rise (amen, amen) We stand our ground [Bridge] Blessed, blessed, blessed Over every wall Peace, peace, peace Let it flood them all Faith in the dust Hope in the night He is peace to reign He is holy light [Final Chorus] ALL DEFENCE rise All defence rise Peace to reign Peace all around ALL DEFENCE rise All defence rise (amen, amen) We stand our ground
