A Fight to the Finish
(Ephesians Ch 6: vs. 10 - 18)
by K A GRAAF
Finally, dear friends be strong in the Lord
And clothe yourselves with love and
In the might of His splendid power
Stay alert and submit yourselves to God
For we are living in the final hours
Be prepared, you are up against far more
Than you can handle by yourself
Call on the name of the Lord
He is your strong tower, where you can run
Your hope and source of help
God has given you the weapons to fight
Go into battle by His Spirit
Not in your own power and might
The weapons we fight with are not
Swords, bombs, guns and knives
We fight with our spiritual weapons
And are clothed in the Armour of Christ
Truth, Righteousness, Faith, Salvation and Peace
Use the weapons God has issued to you
So that when it’s all over but the shouting
You will still be standing on your feet
Pray for each other
and keep each others spirits up
See that no one falls behind or drops out
When the going gets tough
This is a race to the finish, this is no
Casual athletic contest
This is a fight to the finish
A struggle between Life and Death
Satan will throw anything he can at you
To trip you up in this race
Fight the good fight and remain in Gods Grace
We will win this race and gain the victory
But we need to trust in God completely
He will not leave us or forsake us,
Jesus is fighting right by our side
In our struggles and battles He will give us the
Strength and power to fight
So finally dear friends,
Keep fighting and stay strong
Jesus is coming soon, and then
We will all be home at last, singing together,
A Victory song
