Looking at the world today

What do you see

People like you and I

Waiting to be free

Do we even hare a chance

It is hard to tell

With all the fighting and killing

This could br hell



Chorus:

Have you been discouraged

Hard times bringing you down

Fight on! I know you can make it

Prove it to yourself



Working hard just to survive

Can it be done?

We're only trying to make life

Better for our son

All I want is to serve my purpose

Can't get past today

Will there always be someone

Trying to take it away



Chorus



Listen now to what I say

To all that have dared

You got to change your ways

I I now that you're scared

Fear not the Lord is with us

He can save us all

My hope lies in his hands

Please hear his call



Chorus



The spent of Gideon

Lives in the hearts

Of any determined

Little band.

That refuses to be discouraged

By hopeless odds

And fights on to victory

"By the sword of the Lord

and of Gideon
