Cheek Turn Anthem

Yeah,

we're building different foundations out here.

Not by power, not by might.

Listen.

When they strike, we don't strike back That's a different path,

we don't walk like that

Turn the other cheek,

let the anger fade Walking in the light that the Master made

When they strike,

we don't strike back

(no, we don't)

They want an eye for an eye,

leaving everyone blind

But I got a different renewal of mind

Pride wants the friction,

the spark in the dust But I put my shield down,

in Mercy I trust It takes more strength to hold back the

fist To walk through the fire and choose to assist He carried

the cross with no words of defense So I'm letting go of

this earthly pretense (lay it down)

When they strike,

we don't strike back

That's a different path,

we don't walk like that Turn the other cheek,

let the anger fade Walking in the light that the Master made

When they strike, we don't strike back

(no, we don't)

Yeah, they call it a weakness to offer the grace But love

is the mirror that humbles the space When insult is thrown like

a stone in the dark I answer with peace,

let it cover the spark No vengeance,

no fury, the battle is won We follow the steps of the

crucified Son So open the hands that were ready to fight We

trading the darkness for heavenly light (we trading it all)

Peace is the weapon they don't understand

Love is the power that heals up the land (heal the land)

No weapons of steel can compare to the Word The quietest voice

is the one that is heard

When they strike, we don't strike back

That's a different path,

we don't walk like that

Turn the other cheek,

let the anger fade Walking in the light that the Master made

When they strike, we don't strike back (no,

we don't)

Yeah.

Turn the other cheek.

That's where the real strength is found.

Grace over everything. Peace.
