3.  Armour of Faith

There is a victory to be won in every hour.
There is an enemy and we dare not trust his pow’r.
There is a dark, dark night, there is a God of day.
He’s teaching us to fight the fight of faith and win the battle his way.
Yes, we have an armour and this armour keeps us safe.
We hold the mighty Spirit sword and shield of our faith.
Well, the battlefield is in the mind and our leader is the Lord.
And with the sword of truth we’ll fight, and righteousness will be our reward

There is a long, long road and our weary steps seem slow.
There’s something for our feet to help them still to go.
Sandals of peace will help your weary feet go on.
The gospel of the Kingdom peace that Jesus brings will be your song.
Put on the armour now, and never be afraid.
Use the sword, the Word of God, the promises he made.
Your strength is in his power and the battle is the Lord’s.
Just fight the fight with all you’ve got and righteousness will be your reward.

There is an enemy and he swiftly sends his darts.
Sometimes we cannot see, but there’s protection for the heart.
A love for what is right will keep us far from sin.
The breastplate of his righteousness won’t let the darts of evil come in.
Wrap the truth a-round you to keep self out of the way.
And put salvation on your head, remember Jesus gave
his life to turn the battle into victory and so
hold tightly to your shield of faith and never ever let it go.
