01. Intro

-Instrumental-

02. Infantry

This breath I take with you in mind.
This war we fight, we'll fight by your side.
I'll do anything to keep us together.
We'll do anything to give you all exposure.
I'll be there to comfort you. At all cost.
This world will do anything to release it's demons.
At all costs. We'll fight back with all we have.
Making a difference for our God.
Let us be more than stories in a book. Make us legends to come. Make us soldiers of men.
Bringing strength to the weak & life to the dead.
Hope to the hopeless. Knowing this is a total destruction.
Knowing this is a total annihilation of my sin, my hurt, and pain.
All of these cause us suffering.
They can take us to the grave and we will carry on your name.
They can take us to the grave.

03. Redemption

I have been in this daily battle long enough to know it's time to bring this to an end.
A call to be pure, to be so clean. A call for action.
I lift my prayers to you father. Bring us to our knees.
Let me hear your voice in this time of need
and take this lust away from me.
This is your redemption. This is our freedom.
Our freedom, our right. Tonight I make this promise.
To never let lust take over my life.
Tonight. I know there will be many trials and I will be tempted,
but by your grace and your love,
I will defeat this and taste the sweet, sweet victory in you, Jesus.

04. Agape

Can we payback more than can be measured?
If we could love. If we could love.
There is an amount of love. An amount of grace.
Beyond all meaning. Beyond all measure.
If we could even grasp it. There would be more pleasure.
There is no greater love than laying your life down for a friend.
If we loved God to a teaspoon of his overflowing cup
what would this world then see?
Our land of sorrow and turmoil would swirl to a community of joy. Open our eyes to glisten.
Open our hearts to receive. Open our mouths to smile.
This is a love that none can fathom.
How can we repay?
Love the Lord your God.
With all your heart. All your soul.
All your mind. All your strength.

05. Never Lose Sight Of The Goals

We're all people with a dream. Some good, some bad.
Some are real, and some are just fads.
Who will come out on top & who will just give it up.
God has his own plans for us. It's not ours, it's His.
It's time to give it up.
Keep your head up high and never lose sight of the goals.
We will never give up. Never lose sight, of the goals within us.
We will never give up and He will never back down.
Seek and live everyday to never worry what he'll say.
He will never back down. It's not ours, to decide.
Shake it, move. In the end there will be no doubt.
We will never lose sight, of the goals.

07. Words Of Hope

You mean the world to me.
Thoughts of you not being here with me.
You're giving up without looking for a way out.
Walk towards the light.
Stop this timebomb on yourself.
There is more to this world than you could ever imagine.
A love so pure, wanting to lift you up.
To bring your head out of the sand and carry you on the path to righteousness.
A love so pure fixes broken hearts, broken lives.
This gift delivered by our God.
These words of hope are yours to take.
You may be fearful but you are not alone.
I will be there to help you through.
Are you up for the challenge?
Believe in yourself. Know that these words,
these words of hope are yours to take.

08. Ready For The Fight

Ready for the fight.
We've made it too easy to excuse everything we do as acceptable. Or that it's just like everyone else.
The popularity of something does not excuse it.
We cannot live a life of sliding.
Let us walk straight forward.
Eyes focused on our destination.
Body armored for the battle.
Soul ready for the fight.
Prepare us, O God, to go out this time.
Honoring your bride.
With the respect you deserve.
No more excuses this time.
Keep the dress clean.
We will walk before you and return with no more dirt upon us.
We will return clean.

09. A Higher Standard

This is a call out to all who are left.
All brothers and sisters who take the title.
You choose for yourself, and if you claim the name,
so be it. But get your head in the game.
Let's live it. For if we call on God - it's clear.
He has made it simple. His eternal power &
divine nature is clearly seen. So we are without excuse.
We are called to a higher standard but we chose it for ourselves. Let's start a legacy.
Right here, right now. With no excuses this time.
It's you, me, and Him. From here we shall go.
It's time to represent proudly but I'll remind you again.
We will be held to a higher standard.
It can't be looked past.
The responsibility is great but the rewards are golden &
our God is good. His grace will carry us through.

10. With A Passion Burning

Do you have a passion?
Find something that you love.
Run with it, don't stop for anyone else.
No one can get you down. You are better than that.
Fight for your passion.
Be knowledgeable of your roots and proud of what you've become. If what you love reflects yourself inside out it is not a trend.
So many people will never find
true life and all the passion that can flow from it.
Everyone is so quick to judge.
All just so quick to judge. But while they're just watching.
We'll run past them.
