Fight the Good Fight

Not many people understand
why we strive to fight the good fight
and always stand our ground
and even when things go wrong
we still sing to the Lord
in joyful song,
we try to share him with others 
along the way
sharing stories of peace joy and love 
every day
How the Lord changes our life
taking away our fears
and helping us through  strife
we could never go the journey on our own
for he is the one we can trust  and trust him  alone
he gave everything for us
he gave his life his peace his love
not many may understand
but we love the Lord
and will shout it across the land
say it by day
dream it by night
we Love God and 
will fight the good fight. 

let us all stand as one
and sing to the Lord
in joyful song.  Amen
