Lyrics This Means War - Petra

This Means War

Son of the mornin', highest of all
You had so much goin' till you took the fall
Had a place in the glory but you wanted it all
Impossible odds but you had the gall
It seemed so unlikely that you would rebel
Such a worthy opponent that you knew so well
But you went down fightin' when you heard the bell
Took a third of a heaven when you went to hell
This means war and the battle’s still ragin'
War and though both sides are wagin'
The Victor is sure and the victory secure
But till judgment we all must endure
This means war, this means war
Then came the cross, you thought you had won
You thought you had conquered God’s only Son
«So much for Jesus», you said in jest
Then you got a visit from an unwelcome guest
This means war and the battle’s still ragin'
War and though both sides are wagin'
The Victor is sure and the victory secure
But till judgment we all must endure
This means war, this means war
This is the war that we’ve already won
The victory is ours through God’s only Son
This is the war that we’ve already won
The victory is ours through God’s only Son
This is the war that we’ve already won
The victory is ours through God’s only Son
This is the war that we’ve already won
The victory is ours through God’s only Son
This is the war that we’ve already won
The victory is ours through God’s only Son
This is the war that we’ve already won
The victory is ours through God’s only Son
This is the war that we’ve already won
The victory is ours through God’s only Son
This is the war that we’ve already won
Now it’s all over down to the wire
Countin' the days to your own lake of fire
But you’ll go down fightin' for all that you’re worth
To try to abolish His image on earth
This means war and the battle’s still ragin'
War and though both sides are wagin'
The Victor is sure and the victory secure
But till judgment we all must endure
This means war, this means war
This means war, this means war
