There’s a Battle

There’s a Battle
(Jacob R. McGowen)

[1st Verse]
Darkness is advancing
And brokenness it thrives
Wickedness deceives and
Then destroys so many lives

[Pre-Chorus]
As neighbors fight and bicker
As we doubt and question why
There is more to this grand picture
And a Lord who hears our cries

[Chorus]
For there’s a battle in the air
There’s a fight that we can’t see
Between heaven and dark forces
Between principalities
And we sure ain’t superheroes
But we have a place to be
Praying through our bleakest battles
On our hands, on our knees

[2nd Verse]
The evil one, he wages
Seeks to conquer and divide
He thinks he is much greater
Than our Lord, our Adonai

[Pre-Chorus]
He schemes while he thinks that
He reigns over us all
Yet, there’s nothing he can do
To get our Lord up off His throne

[Chorus]
For there’s a battle in the air
There’s a fight that we can’t see
Between heaven and dark forces
Between principalities
And we sure ain’t superheroes
But we have a place to be
Praying through our bleakest battles
On our hands, on our knees

[Bridge]
No, we ain’t fighting flesh and blood
No, we ain’t fighting flesh and blood
We fight for we believe……

[Outro]
There’s a battle in the air
There’s a fight that we can’t see
Between heaven and dark forces
Between principalities
And we sure ain’t superheroes
But we have a place to be
Praying through our bleakest battles
To you Lord, down on our knees
