TIME TO GO TO WAR


AS I SIT BEFORE THIS PAGE OF WHITE,
I WONDER WHAT I'LL WRITE TONIGHT,
I THINK I'LL FORM A BATTLE PLAN,
ON HOW TO TAKE A BRAND NEW STAND!


AS A CHRISTIAN MAN WHO KNOWS HIS WORD,
AND TALKS TO JESUS EVERY DAY,
DEVIL YOU BETTER CLEAR A PATH,
FOR SIN CAN NEVER STAY.


SO TAKE NOTICE ALL YOU DEMONS,
WHO BRING SICKNESS, PAIN AND STRIFE,
BEWARE OF A MAN WHOSE CHOSEN AND BLESSED,
AND LIVING A HOLY LIFE.


THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I MIGHT STUMBLE,
BUT UNDER THE BLOOD I ALWAYS HIDE,
THE WORLD MAY TRY TO TRIP ME UP,
BUT I HAVE JESUS ON MY SIDE!


SO TAKE NOTICE WHEN I WAKE UP,
AND MY FEET FIRST HIT THE FLOOR,
KNOW THAT ERNIE IS AWAKE,
AND IT'S TIME TO GO TO WAR!
