Two Kingdoms

Two kingdoms clashing, light and dark,
They cannot dwell in the same heart.
Give up all that pulls us away,
For Word comes first; it lights the way.

A shield to guard, so strong, so true,
It does the work it is meant to do.
A sword that cuts through bone and marrow, 
Dividing culture and nature, brave and narrow.

Return to the Word, for the Word is sound,
When fighting from victory, strategic rest is found.
So, believe, align, reposition right,
A pathway new, with songs of new sound of light.

Advance, reclaim the spoils once lost,
Press on, no matter what the cost.
