Armor of God

Life is a battlefield
So we must arm ourselves
with God’s sword and His shield

Have the sword of the spirit
at the ready
Plant your feet
firm and steady

Have the shield of faith
ready to raise
Don’t be afraid
to lift it in praise

Buckle the belt
of truth around your waist
Make sure the breastplate
of righteousness
is in place

Then when the helmet of salvation
is securely in place
We can overcome
any obstacles we may face

In this battle
no actual shots are fired
Prayer is the only ammunition required

When we arm ourselves
with the full attire
We are able to withstand
any fire
