It used to be a distant call Thought to be for some but never all Now our wounded lay on every side Now this call to arms can't be denied
The enemy will tremble As young and old assemble A mighty army up in arms
CHORUS: Armed and dangerous God's enemies will scatter Armed and dangerous We'll see the darkness shatter This armor is worth it's weight No weapon can penetrate Armed and dangerous We're ready to storm the gate
We're not so tough on our own Not one can even stand all alone Just a rag tag army at its best We sometimes even fail the smallest test But though this tribulation There comes a transformation We don the armor of our King
(Chorus)
Stand! Up against the flood Stand! Covered by His blood We are the standard He has raised Stand! Earnestly contend Stand! To the very end We've only just begun to fight
