Verse 1 I’m standing here in the center of Your will, But the storm rages louder, and the night won’t stay still. The Tempter whispers, “Where’s your God now?” In the silence, I question, but I won’t bow. Have I gone astray? Did I miss the call? Did my heart deceive me, or was I led to fall? Why do they mock when they don’t understand? But still, I cling to the work of Your hand. Chorus Oh Tempter, don’t you see? The scars I wear are victory. He didn’t need me, but He chose my name, To bear His light in the midst of the flame. If I fall tonight, I’ll rise with the dawn, For the battle is His, and His kingdom goes on. Verse 2 I’ve faced the fear, I’ve walked through fire, Each step I’ve taken feels heavier, higher. But if this is where I’m called to be, Then I’ll bleed for His glory, and His majesty. The world’s a cage, and the chains feel tight, But even here, there’s a piercing light. I’ll make the darkness pay for what it’s done, For the war’s been won by the risen Son. Chorus Oh Tempter, don’t you see? The scars I wear are victory. He didn’t need me, but He chose my name, To bear His light in the midst of the flame. If I fall tonight, I’ll rise with the dawn, For the battle is His, and His kingdom goes on. Bridge One day, no pain, no tears will fall, No fears, no doubts, no shadows at all. But now I see, this war I fight, Will shine forever in eternal light. So I’ll hold the line, I’ll take my stand, With fire in my heart and a sword in my hand. I’m done with crying, I’m back on my feet, For the battle is His, and His victory’s sweet. Chorus Oh Tempter, don’t you see? The scars I wear are victory. He didn’t need me, but He chose my name, To bear His light in the midst of the flame. If I fall tonight, I’ll rise with the dawn, For the battle is His, and His kingdom goes on.
