[Intro – Solemn Gregorian chant over low war-drums]
Induite vos armaturam Dei…
Ut possitis stare adversus insidias diaboli…
(Ephesians 6:11)
[Verse 1 – Slow, crushing march]
The night is far spent, the day of wrath draws near,
Principalities of darkness whisper lies in the ear.
Flesh and devil conspire to drag the soul below,
But the Captain of Salvation calls, arise, and go!
[Pre-Chorus – Choir + handbells]
Non est nobis colluctatio adversus carnem et sanguinem…
Sed adversus mundi rectores tenebrarum harum!
(Ephesians 6:12)
[Chorus – Galloping riffs, soaring melodic vocals]
Induite! Induite!
The full armor of God!
Induite! Induite!
Gird for the war unshod!
Truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation, Spirit’s sword,
We march against sin in the strength of the Lord!
[Verse 2 – Heavier groove, building intensity]
Belt of truth around the loins to bind,
Breastplate of righteousness guards heart and mind.
Feet shod with the readiness of the Gospel of peace,
Shield of faith to quench every fiery dart released.
(Ephesians 6:14-16)
[Verse 3 – Dark progressive riff, haunting lute]
Helmet of salvation upon the brow,
Sword of the Spirit, the Word spoken now.
Praying always in the Spirit, watching thereunto,
With all perseverance for the saints tried and true.
(Ephesians 6:17-18)
[Bridge – Half-time, monk chant + thunderous toms]
State omnes partes armaturae Dei]**
•  Cingulum veritatis
•  Lorica iustitiae
•  Calciati in praeparatione evangelii pacis
•  Scutum fidei
•  Galea salutis
•  Gladius Spiritus, quod est verbum Dei
[Breakdown – Brutal growls + choir answering in clean]
Stand therefore! (STAND!)
Having done all! (TO STAND!)
The enemy falls! (HE FALLS!)
By the Word and Blood of the Lamb!
[Final Chorus – Massive, triumphant]
Induite! Induite!
The full armor of God!
Induite! Induite!
We trample sin underfoot!
No weapon formed against us shall prosper in this fight,
For greater is He that is in us than he that is in the night!
[Outro – Gregorian chant swells, then fades with distant trumpet]
State ergo accincti lumbos vestros in veritate…
Et induti loricam iustitiae…
In omnibus sumentes scutum fidei…
Deus vult…
Amen.
