No Turning Back



We came
to far to
turn back now,
to the place of heartache,
dread and fear.

As we
call upon
the name of Jesus,
He is
our redeemer
and, He stays near.

When
the arrows
of the enemy
fly about our head,

In place
of stumbling
and doubt we go
to
God
instead.

He
hides
us in His
shadow, the
enemy in our life
He defeats,

As we
take the
promises of
God,
hide them
in our heart
and from our mouth,
do speak.

In our
fire
of trials
that we must face
and stand,

Jesus says
‘Peace be still,'
and to the enemy we demand.

You
must
stop in
the
name of Jesus,
your destruction
in our life,

And we
must stand
in the strength
of the Lord against
all strife.

We never
face a battle
or trial alone without
the Lord,

As we
stand, keeping
our eyes on Him
and
praying
in one accord.
