Call To War - Philip Bailey

There’s a conflict that’s before us

There’s a war that we must fight

As it’s been from the beginning

With the darkness and the light, whoa…

Put on the whole armor

Don’t be afraid, uh-uh

Just remember, God is with us

In these evil days

God’s command is go and conquer

All the enemies of peace

With the sword of the Spirit

Let the captives be released, whoa…

Just remember God is with us

Don’t be afraid

Put on the whole armor

In these evil days

Everybody, come together

It’s a call to war, yes, it is

Christian soldiers, stand united

It’s a call to war

For the Lord is on our side

And if He’s with us

Who can defeat us

There’s a stirring in my spirit

There’s a burning in my soul

For the victory of the righteous

And for justice to take hold

And even though we lose some battles

God wins the war, yes, He does

Cast down but not forsaken

We are never destroyed

Everybody, come together

It’s a call to war

Christian soldiers, stand united

It’s a call to war

For the Lord is on our side

And when He’s with us

Who can defeat us

I wanna know

Looking to that day

When we see Jesus

Joy everlasting

Upon that peaceful shore

We’ll study war no more

As He has promised

We’ll live forever

But until He calls

The Church must stand tall

Everyone, come together

Everybody, come together

It’s a call to war

Christian soldiers, fight for justice

It’s a call, it’s a call to war

You know the Lord is on our side

And if He’s with us

Who can defeat us

Everybody, come together

It’s a call to war, yes, it is

Christian soldiers, fight apartheid

It’s a call to war

Hey, hey, hey

For the Lord has set us free

And we’re free indeed

So who can escape us

Everybody, come together

It’s a call to war, yes, it is

Christian soldiers, fight addiction

It’s a call to war…
