A Sword – v2

A sword, such in the word of God
of the Spirit, living in each one of us
a weapon, an offensive weapon,
to be used to change the world
to go out, courage
wearing the armor of God
out in the world

A message of love, written on our hearts
made real, living through us
armor we need, to defend us from the world
the temptations, the assaults, the enemy
but the sword for battle, to bring the fight to them
this is our sword, our battle axe
the holy word of God
