Verse 1:
The ropes of death ensnare and the trap of sin holds tight
But in a moment You are there - my captain in the fight
Take now my hand in Yours and help me to wield this sword
Till every foe I fight falls down to rise no more
Chorus:
This is the God I serve; this is the truth I trust
We shall more than conquer by the power of great love
Apart from Him I am nothing, but by His grace I stand
Strong to triumph while He's holding tight my hand
Verse 2:
Oh, reach down from heaven and draw me to Your light
Please drive out all the darkness I cannot see to fight
Arm me with new strength; be for me a shield
Train me with a truth that wins the battlefield
