1. Days are passing; saints are sighing; Satan leads apostasy.
The Word of God, our hope and leading light;
Be of courage in the fight.

2. Cults are rising; prophets lying; Churces cease to take a stand.
And people change from former blessed ways,
In the passing of the days.

3. Nations angry; peace is leaving; Chaos stalks across the land.
And fallen man seeks darker, deeper sin;
Tribulation brings the end.

Refrain:
Jesus stands nearby, as earth’s voices cry;
Antichrist is in the womb.
Unsheath the sword; Cry aloud God’s Word.
The battle is the Lord’s.


THE BATTLE IS THE LORD’S
