Gideon Lyrics

Looking at the world today
What do you see
People like you and I
Waiting to be free
Do we even have a chance
It is hard to tell
With all this fighting and killing
This could be 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 know 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 spirit of Gideon
Lives in the hearts
Of any determined band
That refuses to be discouraged
By hopeless odds
And fights on to victory
"By the sword of the Lord and of Gideon"
