When the trials get heavy
And the road seems low
There are some things
I think you should know
This is a test
A school if you would
To see what our use will be
In another neighborhood
One with no bounds
No dips in the road
One where we help
With someones heavy load
Oh the perks!
With an Armor of Light
With a Sword of His Spirit
Feet shod the gospel of right
With faith we have His shield
To wear a waistband of truth,
A helmet of His salvation,
His breastplate of righteousness
