You Are


There’s something in my eye,

It just makes me want to cry,

Something’s in this country,

Make me wish I was blind.

 

Death wants to rule us,

Despair wants end us,

Evil wants to distract us,

 

This is where I draw the line,

This is where I raise my hand,

This is where I hold my banner,

This is my life, This is my attack,

 

Though darkness covers my path,

Though pain may block my way,

Though death haunt my back,

Though evil may stand in my way.

 

You tore the chains, that were holding me,

You broke the barriers separating us,

You burned the bridge to my evil,

You freed me from my past,

 

This is where I draw the line,

This is where I raise my hand,

This is where I hold my banner,

This is my life, This is my attack,

 

You are the one we wait for,

Not Death, not the End, not even the Enemy,

You are the one power, The only Power

Not Death, not the End, not even the Enemy,

You are our God, Our only God

Not Death, not the End, not even the Enemy
