[Instrumental] [Verse 1] The headlines roar of shadows, kingdoms rising, kingdoms fall, But deeper still a clash unseen surrounds us one and all. I feel the pull of worry, the tremor in my bones, Then Your whisper cuts the chaos—“Child, My power is your own.” [Pre-Chorus 1] No sword of steel can guard a soul, no shield of pride can save; Yet grace forges living armor, and it bears my Savior’s name. [Chorus] I will stand in the strength of the Lord, Clothed in the might that He freely pours. Flesh and blood aren’t the foes I fight— The victory’s won in the risen Christ. Every ruler, power, and throne Bends to the King who calls me His own. So I march in the light of a battle He’s already won— I will stand in the strength of the Lord. [Verse 2] The arrows of accusation try to pierce the hope I hold; Lies that whisper “You’re defeated” echo in the cold. But truth around my weary waist, salvation on my head, Faith lifts up a holy shield, and fear turns back instead. [Pre-Chorus 2] The gospel boots keep moving on, the Spirit’s sword cuts free; Every stride and every swing proclaims His sure decree. [Chorus] I will stand in the strength of the Lord, Clothed in the might that He freely pours. Flesh and blood aren’t the foes I fight— The victory’s won in the risen Christ. Every ruler, power, and throne Bends to the King who calls me His own. So I march in the light of a battle He’s already won— I will stand in the strength of the Lord. [Bridge] When darkness gathers like a flood, He speaks and oceans part; When giants shout their blasphemy, He stills my pounding heart. The cross declared the war is done; the tomb confirmed the claim— Now every power of hell retreats at just the mention of His name! [Final Chorus] I will stand in the strength of the Lord, Clothed in the might that He freely pours. Flesh and blood aren’t the foes I fight— The victory’s won in the risen Christ. Every ruler, power, and throne Bows to the King who calls me His own. So I march in the light of a battle He’s already won— Yes, I stand in the strength of the Lord! [Tag / Outro] He has won… He has won… I will stand— In the strength of the Lord.
