This Is Your Sword

Brothers and sisters listen to me These are the few things that I leave to thee This sword of our fathers with lessons hard taught This shield strong and sturdy from battles well fought

This is your sword, this is your shield This is the power of love revealed Carry them with you wherever you go And give all the love that you have in your soul

The times they are dark, darkness covers the earth But this world's filled with the beauty of God's work Hold tight to your promise, stay righteous, stay strong For the days of miracles will come along

This is your sword, this is your shield This is the power of love revealed Carry it with you wherever you go And give all the love that you have in your soul

In the days of despair you can grow hard Till you close your mind and empty your heart If you find yourself staring in the abyss Hold tight to your loved ones and remember this

This shield will protect your sacred heart This sword will defend from what comes in the dark Should you grow weary on the battlefield Do not despair our love is real

This is your sword, this is your shield This is the power of love revealed Carry it with you wherever you go And give all the love that you have in your soul And give all the love that you have in your soul
