Endurance

We lie alone under this cobalt sky
And hold our breath as tracers fly
Now they're all around us, they're closing in
We hear their voices, they mean to kill

With shadows falling, they cross the field
We've only seconds left, and now
The ground is shaking and I feel their steps
With trembling hands I stand to fight

We will not die on enemy soil
Against all odds we will endure

Forgive me, father, I long for peace
Grant me strength to bear this guilt

Beyond the ridge, a flood of light, our salvation
Deliverance
Scatter evil from our midst, return us all to our king

We will endure
