Song Lyrics
THE FORGIVEN
©1997, John A.Poe,Jr.
•
1
Once Gideon went to war with thirty thousand men,
But he found most of them were unprepared to win;
He kept a tiny crew who had faith and loyalty,
And those commited few won a mighty victory.
•
2
God’s people marched along toward the promised land one day,
But found the walls of Jericho standing in their way;
So following God’s command they all marched ‘round and ‘round,
And when the trumpets blew those walls came tumbling down.
•
(chorus)
We have to take a stand for Jesus in this land;
There is no other name for salvation has been given;
We must stand up and fight for what we know is right;
We’re the few, the saved, the forgiven.
•
3
Now God has ordered you and me: go and spread the word
To each and every nation til everyone has heard.
The trumpet call has sounded, the battle has begun,
But Satan is defeated, and we’ve already won!
•
(chorus)
We have to take a stand for Jesus in this land;
There is no other name for salvation has been given;
We must stand up and fight for what we know is right;
We’re the few, the saved, the forgiven.
•
(repeat chorus)
•
(ending)
We’ve got to stand and fight for what we know is right...
We’re the few, the saved, the forgiven.
