The war

by Brett Barton

The war rages on
Between the bad and the good
Even if we choose
Not to pay attention as we should

I have been alone
Fighting this war not knowing why
But I know I must
This I understand I can't deny

So many things
If could only describe what I see
Then I think
You would be inclined to believe

As the war rages on
A warriors spirit I have inside
I step out showing all
There is no reason to continually hide

The battle is here
Inside ourselves and all around
Quietly it whispers
And most never hear a sound

A constant struggle
Grips us deep down within
On the outside
The war pitting salvation and sin

We can sit by
As evil grows day by day
Or choose to fight
And it's easy simply just pray

I am a warrior
Destined to take the fight to them
So I carry this sword
My faith growing stronger deep within
