Shoulder to Shoulder

Eye to eye,

Hand to hand,

Toe to toe,

A war is raging.

A battle within.

If only my enemy were visible.

So many lies,

Whispered in the night,

An overhand right.

Oh Lord,

teach me to fight without sight.

to shine bright despite the night.

Jesus!

Save my soul from Sheol.

You know this enemy of mine,

You battled in the desert forty days...

And arose victorious.

You dueled this foe,

I want to know,

How?

Create in me a heart alike your own.

Radiate within the caverns of my soul,

For you make me whole.

With you I can face the darkness of Sheol.

For you have conquered.

O my King,

Lead me into war.

Teach me to charge like a wild boar,

And as the lion, ROAR!

And on wings like eagles’ soar,

Victory assured,

For who can stand in your way?

Fight with me and I will fight for you.

Shoulder to shoulder.
