It 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 armour is worth it’s 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, no,
Just a rag tag army at its best,
We sometimes even fail the smallest test,
But, though this tribulation, there comes a transformation,
We don the armour of our King.
Armed and dangerous,
God’s enemies will scatter,
Armed and dangerous,
We’ll see the darkness shatter,
This armour is worth it’s 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 armour is worth it’s weight,
No weapon can penetrate,
Armed and dangerous,
We’re ready to storm the gate,
Storm the gate, whoa.
