The war is raging all around me
I’m weary and battle-worn
the forces of the night surround me,
threatening to destroy

and the battlefield is strewn with broken lives
torn and tattered in the struggle to survive
but I will not be a casualty of this war I didn't start
I’ll fight with a fearless heart

the darkness bids me to surrender
my weakness begs me to retreat
the faith sustains its true defenders,
with the promise of relief

and the battlefield is strewn with broken lives
torn and tattered in the struggle to survive
but I will not be a casualty of this war I didn't start
I’ll fight with a fearless heart

I will not lay my courage down
until the enemy is found
I will not die

and the battlefield is strewn with broken lives
torn and tattered in the struggle to survive
but I will not be a casualty of this war I didn't start
I’ll fight with a fearless heart
