| This 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
|
| Armed and dangerous
|
| God’s enemies will scatter
|
| Armed and dangerous
|
| We’ll see the darkness shatter
|
| His armor is worth its 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 through this tribulation
|
| There comes a transformation
|
| We don the armor of our King
|
| Armed and dangerous
|
| God’s enemies will scatter
|
| Armed and dangerous
|
| We’ll see the darkness shatter
|
| His armor is worth its weight
|
| No weapon can penetrate
|
| Armed and dangerous
|
| We’re ready to storm the gate
|
| 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
|
| Armed and dangerous
|
| God’s enemies will scatter
|
| Armed and dangerous
|
| We’ll see the darkness shatter
|
| His armor is worth its weight
|
| No weapon can penetrate
|
| Armed and dangerous
|
| We’re ready to storm the gate, storm the gate |
