He stood upon the dusty hill alone
With armor made of scars and quiet faith
A quiet warrior carving out his home
No longer running from the coldest wraith
He held his shield
but laid his weapons down
To fight a war
that only love could win (ooh)
For the battle is the Lord's,
the heart is the field
Love is the fire
and faith is the shield
With courage we rise,
with mercy we stand
A warrior of light
in a troubled land (yeah)
He walks into the valley without fear
A promise written deep within his soul
Knowing that the guiding hand is near
To heal the broken and to make him whole
For the battle is the Lord's,
the heart is the field
Love is the fire
and faith is the shield
With courage we
rise,
with mercy we stand
A warrior
of light
in a troubled land
With courage we rise... (hallelujah)
