Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Sun beats down, a heavy weight,
On shoulders weary, sealed by fate.
Another day, another fight,
Against the shadows, in the fading light.
My sword is worn, my shield is cracked,
But in my heart, a fire's packed.
A flicker small, a stubborn spark,
To guide me through the endless dark.
(Chorus)
Oh, spirit strong, that dwells within,
Protect me now, where do I begin?
To find the strength, to stand my ground,
When all around, is falling down.
I ask for courage, sharp and keen,
To face the foe, that lies unseen.
And grant me wisdom, in this fray,
To find a better, brighter way.
(Verse 2)
I've seen the faces, etched in pain,
The fallen comrades, in the pouring rain.
I've heard the screams, the dying breath,
And tasted sorrow, close to death.
The memories haunt, they claw and bite,
But I must push them from my sight.
For if I falter, if I break,
Another soul, will pay the stake.
(Chorus)
Oh, spirit strong, that dwells within,
Protect me now, where do I begin?
To find the strength, to stand my ground,
When all around, is falling down.
I ask for courage, sharp and keen,
To face the foe, that lies unseen.
And grant me wisdom, in this fray,
To find a better, brighter way.
(Bridge)
I don't ask for victory, or fame,
Just strength to whisper, through the flame.
To fight with honor, fight with grace,
And leave this world, a better place.
If I should fall, beneath the sword,
Let my spirit rise, and be restored.
To join the ranks, of heroes past,
Whose courage burned, and forever cast.
(Chorus)
Oh, spirit strong, that dwells within,
Protect me now, where do I begin?
To find the strength, to stand my ground,
When all around, is falling down.
I ask for courage, sharp and keen,
To face the foe, that lies unseen.
And grant me wisdom, in this fray,
To find a better, brighter way.
(Outro)
So I will fight, until the end,
With hope as my companion, and faith as my friend.
And in your name, I'll stand my ground,
Until my final breath is found.
Amen.
