Put on the helmet of salvation
Put on the breastplate of righteousness
Clothe your whole being in holy armour
Worthy to stand the test.
We're in the battle of the ages
In the Lord's army there's no retreat,
Fighting against the powers of darkness
For us there is no defeat.
It's war we're fighting
It's war we're going to win
It's war we're fighting
And we're fighting this war to win.
Flesh and blood is not what we're fighting
We fight against what we cannot see
The prince of power of the air
Accuser of you and me.
Truth has defeated the deceiver
Hell has no power to wound the Son
So why do we fight like we're losing the battle
When the victory's already won?
