Battlecry

This is an original song I wrote, with my bestie Lauren Wolfe accompanying me. We had a lot of fun recording this.And it was especially meaningful to have my best friend put a piano to it, and make it her own. Lauren Wolfe, I’m glad I know you.

Chords and Lyrics

Em       C

With warriors wounded weapons dull

    G

we bow as beggars before your throne

D

there’s no one left to fight for us

  Em

O King, will you rescue us

      C

The enemy has come for war

    G

against our armies, against you Lord

D

Will you come and save this day?

Em C

Will you come and be our strength?

chorus: 

Em C

We will raise a battle cry

        G

though valleys low and mountains high

  D

it shall be heard by those who fear

        Em

All ye saints, draw near

        C

your king will fight you this day

G

our enemy he’ll surely slay

      D

Come stand before the camp and sing

Em C G D

All glory to the King.

verse 2

Em   C

This battles’  waged for far too long

        G

and all around our warriors fall

    D

we have no strength or hope in sight

Em

we will die before the night

      C

But lo behold we see him there

    G

Riding a horse white and fair

      D

Our conquering king has won the fight

    Em   C

and he’s raising dead to life. (x2)

Bridge:

Rise up ye dead men, take your swords

to praise our King, the One true Lord.

Our strong defender-the Great I am-

He’s the Roaring Lion and the Spotless Lamb (x3)
